Free Music in Knoxville

If you're looking for free music in Knoxville, you won't have to look very long.

From a cozy studio in downtown Knoxville where you can watch and listen to live radio performances to Sundown in the City, Knoxville has a lot to offer people who like free music!

I describe them all below.

If you're looking for free music that you can take with you, and the quality of your tunes is important to you, you should check out the 25 free MP3 downloads from eMusic.com.

I just looked around at what members were recommending, and was very pleased with my freebies, which included one of the greatest flamenco guitar albums ever recorded: Luiz Bonfa: "Live in Rio 1959" and the uber-funky 1970s album "They Say I'm Different" by Betty Davis (once married to the famous jazz trumpeter Miles Davis).

Since it's in MP3 format, you can burn it anyway you want to, and play it on any music player, including the iPod.

Free Music in Knoxville: The WDVX Blue Plate Special

Do you love bluegrass music? How about old Johnny Cash-style country? Singer-songwriter folk? Americana rock?

WDVX, which you can hear locally on 89.9 fm and 102.9 fm, is the only radio station I've ever heard that plays the best of them all.

AND, they offer the public a chance to see great music performed live during the noon hour Blue Plate Special every week day and some Saturdays.

It's in the downtown Knoxville Visitor's Center building at 301 South Gay Street.

Check it out! You can buy a good cup of joe and a sandwich or salad while you watch, or just sit back and enjoy some amazing free music in Knoxville! You won't be disappointed.
