Have a great day fellow coffee, art and music lovers! If you live in the Nashville area or are passing through be sure to stop into Bongo Java for some great brew and check out Goodwin's art. To top it off he just walked in! I'll get him to stand by one of his pieces and take a photo for y'all. This clever, poignant art reflects the humor and social conscience of one of Nashville's unique talents. I knew John was also an artist but I didn't realize the scope of his talent until this morning. John co-wrote some of the music to the film Crazy Heart and Jeff Bridges has recorded three of his songs. John always cracks me up with his satirical view of Music Row and the songwriter's life in Nashville. I've met John Goodwin and chatted with him several times over the last few years at area coffee shops in Nashville. This art is bright and big with a certain primitive symbolism that lands somewhere between Warholian pop art and Howard Finster style folk art.Īfter looking over the new display I realize this must be art by the J. Coffee culture and local art is a good buzz. Right away I notice a new display of art by J. Fresh faced students, ragged hipsters, aging boomers, aspiring divas, hustling entrepreneurs and indie rock scenesters all fueling up for the day ahead. Next time you're out in Bellevue and need a cup of Joe or something to eat skip the thought of going to a Panera or Bread and Company and stop into City Limits Cafe and Bakery.įriday morning after labor day. I'm happy to be a part of this music centered community. This is a hip city that is really coming onto it's own. Like all of Nashville it just seems to get cooler all the time. It might not be quite as hip and happening on the west edge of town but there are a few cool places to be found. A great atmosphere to hang out for awhile, get my caffeine fix and get some paper work done or meet with potential clients or friends. Most of all they have an excellent selection of gourmet coffees and a nice big patio with outdoor tables. For lunch they have unique and tasty sandwiches on freshly baked breads and soups. They've got great pastries that are baked in house and egg dishes that rock. Though I spend most of my time teaching music lessons and gigging downtown and south of town in Brentwood or Franklin where I frequent various coffee shops, it is nice to have somewhere to get a good cup of coffee and have a nice place to hang on a day I'm home that isn't a Starbucks.Ĭity Limits Cafe is that place. I live on the western outskirts of Nashville in the Bellevue community. I'm sure I'll be back to this inviting coffee geek headquarters. Black coffee with The Black Keys is fine with me.Īs with any coffee house, besides the coffee and food needing to be good, to win me over I have to feel comfortable enough to want to return. It's pretty hard to be relevant in Nashville without good music taste. The beans are roasted here and they source their own product too.Īnother winning factor for me is the great selection of independent rock music playing on the sound system. It's a really cool spot with a great atmosphere and very friendly, coffee geek baristas who are anxious to share their knowledge and help you brew your own coffee by the cup if you so desire.
