?This statue is located in Owen Bradley Park in the Music Row area of Nashville, TN. Owen Bradley was a Nashville Music Producer who produced songs for many great Country Music Artists. Among these individuals were Patsy Cline and Kitty Wells. He co-wrote Roy Acuff’s hit “Night Train to Memphis".
Owen was the leader of a sought-after dance band that played well-heeled society parties all over the city. He kept the band up until 1964, although in the intervening decades, his work as a producer would far overshadow his own performing career.
In 1997, the Metro Parks Authority in Nashville dedicated a small public park between 16th Avenue South and Division Street to Owen Bradley, where his bronze likeness sits at a bronze piano. Owen Bradley Park is at the northern end of Music Row.
Name of Musician: Owen Bradley
