All of Memphis lives for the music

In general, you can easily use a lot of time just walking around in Memphis. To experience the blues music where it was created is something entirely different than listening to the music at home. Whether you like the music or not, it is easy to get seized by the atmosphere, when everyone around you is decidedly blues lovers. The same of course applies to rock’n’roll in those neighborhoods, where that is the preferred music. Every night, you can try out a new music venue, where you of course can be served plenty of beer and deep-fried dishes, as is the custom here, until you have found just the place, where you feel most at home.

Famous musicians in Memphis

In many ways, Memphis is the epicenter for music in the US. Memphis can not only brag about Elvis Presley, since a band like U2 and the musician Roy Orbison have also recorded a great deal of their music in Memphis. There are record labels everywhere in the city, and it is possible to visit almost all of them. In a way, you have the opportunity to stand where U2 and Elvis Presley have stood before you, and at some of the record labels, you can even record a song with you as the singer.

The National Civil Rights Museum

Martin Luther King Junior was assassinated on a motel terrace in Memphis in 1968. Today, the motel has been converted into a museum for the American Civil Rights activist and is called National Civil Rights Museum.
Another great attraction in Memphis is the large glass pyramid that is locally referred to as “The Pyramid”. Through the years, everything from sports events to concerts with some of the world’s greatest stars have been held here.

Elvis Presley

At the age of 13, Elvis Presley moved to Memphis with his parents. It was here that he began playing music, and it was also where he was discovered. Many of Elvis’s most famous songs and albums, among others “Blue Suede Shoes” and “Heartbreak Hotel”, were recorded in Memphis. The Graceland Museum celebrates Elvis Presley, or “The King”, and is the US’ second most visited museum, only surpassed by the White House. Elvis lived at Graceland until he died in 1977, and today the place is converted into a museum dedicated to Elvis’s life and accomplishments. Here, you can experience Elvis’s planes, spend the night at Heartbreak Hotel just across from Graceland, as well as many other things…
