“I’m very excited to portray the country music world of my favorite town, Nashville, by showing the exciting life of musicians, songwriters and performers – all very talented people.” says Paisley.  “Look for some of your favorite country music stars to make their acting debuts on the show – either by playing themselves or as a character in the script.  Country songs are like great scripts already and it’s going to be fun to see how some unfold on the show.”
