Songwriters' Week was another significant step taken by Sila Developments and Triumph Hospitality to reconnect the property's history with the music industry that surrounds it.
"Lyric Lane is our small way of giving back and celebrating the creativity and uniqueness of Music Row, while honoring the incredible work of songwriters whose music has touched all our lives," said Andy Bhakta, Principle Partner of Sila Developments. "People often forget that the everyday music we listen to would not be possible without songwriters. Music holds immense therapeutic power, shaping our emotions and everyday experiences. We feel truly blessed to have received these heartfelt lyrics from so many talented songwriters, as well as the support of the PLA team, in bringing 'Lyric Lane' to life here at The Motif on Music Row."
"Motif on Music Row is honored to display handwritten song lyrics, album covers, signed headshots, and other cherished pieces of music history," stated President of Triumph Hospitality Katie Schultz. "We look forward to showing off these items and educating our guests on Music Row's incredible contribution to Nashville and to the world. We hope all of our neighbors will come visit and take a stroll down Lyric Lane."
“I originally met Andy through a citizens group concerned with the preservation of Music Row. I've now known and respected him for years,” says PLA Media CEO Pam Lewis.“His vision to celebrate the iconic history and soul of Music Row became the foundation for this one-of-a-kind installation called 'Lyric Lane.' Motif on Music Row is paying homage to the songwriters who built Nashville as the 'It City' it has become. The property may look different, but the spirit of this space remains vibrant and palpable.”
In addition to the installation of Lyric Lane and Songwriters' Week, in honor of its history, Motif on Music Row's presidential suite was named the "United Artists Suite," and more music-related initiatives will be announced soon.
