Lainey Wilson opens Nashville Bar at FGL House location

Lainey Wilson adds bar owner to her already impressive career resume. According to the Nashville Business Journal, Wilson will join Miranda Lambert as the only two women to own bars on Nashville’s bar-lined Broadway Street.

The singer of “Wildflowers and Wild Horses” is collaborating with TC Restaurant Group. The group owns many name-brand bars such as Luke’s 32 Bridge Food + Drink, Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Rooftop Bar and Miranda Lambert’s Casa Rosa.

Wilson’s new venture will come at the cost of closing the space’s current bar. FGL House, located at 120 Third Ave S., was a partnership between the now defunct band Florida Georgie Line and TC Restaurant Group. The duo opened the bar in 2017 and since last weekend the bar, just like the band, no longer exists.

The FGL House website page no longer leads to the restaurant, but to the TC Restaurant Group page. However, the bar’s Instagram is still live and no notice has been posted about its closure yet.

An opening date for Wilson’s bar, or any information about what fans can expect, has yet to be released.

While the singer’s bar is in the works, TC Restaurant Group is currently focusing on opening an artist bar in another country.

Morgan Wallen’s This Bar and Tennessee Kitchen open Memorial Day Weekend. This partnership includes a six-story location located at 107 Fourth Ave. N.

Nashville’s downtown bar scene has embraced several new celebrity-lined bars lately. Eric Church’s six-story Chief’s location, Garth Brooks’ Friends at Low Places Bar & Honky Tonk and Hank Williams Jr. Boogie Bar are three of the new locations to add to the growing list.

19 country stars with their own bars and restaurants

Of all the side activities that country artists can participate in, opening a bar or restaurant is the most appropriate – and very common. After all, many of these stars started out on a bar stool, with a tip jar nearby, playing their music for anyone who would listen.

These places feel like home to many of these singers. Over the years, several artists have entered the bar or restaurant world, and for a select few, brands have become franchises with different locations and/or concepts – we’re looking at you, Jimmy Buffett!

Let’s take a look at the dining and entertainment venues that have opened over the years.
