"’MUSIC CITY On Stage!’ is a type of entertainment that has been missing in NASHVILLE for quite some time," said FONTANEL co-owner MARC OSWALD. "The idea of a dinner and variety show not only fills a niche, but it provides an outlet to an amazing group of talented musicians and singers who call NASHVILLE home."
