Let’s discover Bristol

I have never been to Bristol and I am in love!

I don’t know about yall but I love history. Something I did not know what Bristol is the birth place of country music! When they were trying to discover new music people flocked to Bristol to record on their version of a vinyl. Hundreds of new songs were produced and some became extremely popular for example the Carter family and to where June Carter became a famous country singer later on!

So much history in this town…. And also can’t forget NASCAR!
