This week marks four years since NASHtoday first sent out a newsletter at 6 a.m. Since then, we’ve shared Nashville’s news updates, city history, local guides, and more with you every morning. Stroll with us down memory lane to look back at a few of our “firsts” and how you can stay connected in the years to come.

Newsletter

The very first time we appeared in your inbox, it was to welcome our earliest subscribers. In the inaugural newsletter, we promised to share need-to-know Nashville information, from development updates to restaurant recommendations. Some things never change.

To celebrate, we’re taking a look at some of our most-viewed articles from the past year:

Instagram

After hitting “send” on our morning newsletter, we took to Instagram to offer a preview of upcoming stories. Since then, we’ve shared 2,313 posts and grown to over 84,000 followers. Push us towards our goals by following us to get even more local news every day.

You’re not supposed to offer up birthday wishes, but ours is to continue sharing more Music City content with our readers. You can help support our mission by forwarding our newsletter to a friend or following along with our social media posts. Here’s to many more years.
