Historic Jonesborough-My Muse

Today I had a promotional photo session for Slackjack Guitars.  My wife, who just happens to be my Media Director (Brandi Woodall at Positive Approach Events) picked out a few venues downtown to take some photos.  I have to say I was really impressed with how they turned out.  Turns out Jonesborough, TN is a great backdrop for Slackjack Guitars.

There is something to be said for a town that has so much history.  I guess I take for granted that everyone else knows about Jonesborough, but I guess a lot of folks just don’t.  So here’s a little bit about the town that inspires me. 

  • It is the oldest town in Tennessee
  • Many of the buildings in the town date back to the 1780′s
  • Andrew Jackson practiced law here
  • We still have ice cream socials and Music on the Square
  • The merchants in town know you by name

I could go on and on about what inspires me.  We stopped by the Eureka Inn to visit with the Innkeeper, Maria this afternoon during the photo session.  Feeling a little inspired after strolling the streets, walking the railroad, and sitting on the steps of the Christopher Taylor House, I just wanted to play.  And play I did on the gazebo at the Eureka Inn…enjoy….

  1. That is absolutely the coolest looking and sounding guitar I’ve even seen or heard. I wish I lived someplace where they had ice cream socials and folks jammed on the porches of inns.
