For almost 20 years, the 12 South Taproom hosted improvised live music on Mondays that outshone many of the city’s clubs with cover charges and 21-and-up policies. Some of Nashville’s best guitarists and rhythm sections held court. A bluegrass collective has made the place jovial since 2016. On the eve of the Taproom’s closure, Craig Havighurst salutes this beloved neighborhood institution and the kinds of micro-scenes that fade in and out in Music City.
