On April 20, 2008, Music City, Inc., inducted another class of musical greats and industry legends to the Music City Walk of Fame, presented by founding sponsor Gibson Guitar: Steven Curtis Chapman, Merle Kilgore, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Steve Wariner, Kirk Whalum and Hank Williams Sr. Each honoree represents the immense talent, creativity and diverse musical styles that have made Nashville known as Music City U.S.A.

The honorees were recognized officially with the unveiling of commemorative sidewalk markers in the Hall of Fame Park in downtown Nashville. The “Music Mile” which is also sponsored by Great American Country (GAC), is a landmark tribute to those from all genres of music who have made significant contributions to preserving the musical heritage of Nashville and have contributed to the world through song or other industry collaboration.
