VG.2017 AMERICANA IS A VIBE “Thompson’s Station is home. From the rolling hills to the cows to the sense of place, it felt like home the first time we came here. We want our community to proud of what we’re doing, and that means that we have to craft spirits that are as incredible as the community we come from. That’s an awesome challenge as we do our best every day to meet it.” — Heath Clark H Clark Distillery

26 AMERICANA IS A VIBE visitfranklin.com 27 AMERICANA IS A SOUND “Franklin is an amazing example of an artist driven community where it’s OK to be weird. This is the first place I ever sang into a microphone where I really felt someone listened. Whether I’m hanging out at Frothy Monkey, grabbing fish and chips over at McCreary’s Pub, checking out the next big thing to say I got to see them before they got their big break, or catching a legend pop in at Puckett’s of Leiper’s Fork, the rich character of this town and the

people of this community truly inspire me.” — Daphne Culver (middle) and band, Daphne & the Mystery Machines
