The Music City Walk of Fame—created in 2006—is a tribute to artists of all genres who have contributed to the world through song and made a significant contribution to the music industry with a connection to Music City. Sidewalk medallions line the one-mile stretch with the names of the inductees etched in a star and guitar design. Past inductees include Johnny Cash, Vince Gill, Alan Jackson, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride, Keith Urban, Hank Williams, Trisha Yearwood and more.

Over their 18-year career, Little Big Town—consisting of members Karen Fairchild, Phillip Sweet, Kimberly Schlapman and Jimi Westbrook—has earned multiple No. 1 hits, including “Pontoon” and “Girl Crush,” and won multiple Grammy Awards, CMA Awards and ACM Awards.

In addition to LBT, Tom Ryman and Lula C. Naff were inducted into the Music City Walk of Fame for their central roles in creating and developing the Ryman Auditorium. Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show inducted Tom Ryman, while Jeannie Seely inducted Lula C. Naff.
