The Location

The Hit Recording Capital of the World. Muscle Shoals Sound blends elements of soul, R&B, rock, and country. The town played a significant role in breaking racial barriers in the music industry, with Black and white musicians collaborating during the civil rights era.

The small-town vibe contrasts beautifully with its massive influence on global music.
