Nashville is busy decking the halls before spring has sprung. The city is transforming into a winter wonderland for “Music City Mistletoe,” which began filming on Tuesday, March 11.

The movie follows Chloe, a struggling songwriter in Nashville who is on the verge of kissing her publishing deal and other major music milestones goodbye. Of course, it wouldn’t be Music City without a few notable guest appearances, including on-air personality Kelly Sutton and former WKRN anchor Neil Orne.

Here are a few fast facts while we wait to see local artist, songwriter, and now screenwriter Shantell Ogden’s vision come to life.

  • Filming locations: Nashville spots such as The Commodore Grille and Eastside Music Supply are featured, in addition to portions of Hohenwald, TN.
  • Cast: Sarah Pribis, who has appeared on “The Bold and the Beautiful” and most recently starred in “A Belgian Chocolate Christmas,” plays Chloe. Brooks Ryan and Christopher Callen round out the main cast, playing Devin and Sheri, respectively.
  • Music: Listen to the film’s music samples.
