Nashville is “back” as CMA Fest and Spotify’s marquee four-day country music showcase Spotify House returns. Once again, taking over Blake Shelton and Opry Entertainment Group’s Ole Red venue in downtown Nashville, Spotify House will kick off on Thursday, June 9, welcoming fans from around the world to enjoy four days of nonstop country music.
