Wedgewood-Houston is next in line for a major concert venue.

Live Nation unveiled plans for The Truth, a 4,400-capacity indoor music hall set to open in fall 2026 — adding to Nashville’s growing list of live music spots. The name nods to songwriter Harlan Howard’s famous line that all you need to write a country song is “three chords and the truth.”

Get an early look at what’s to come in this virtual walkthrough, then check out the highlights below.

  • Three levels for seated and standing-room shows
  • Harlan’s (a whiskey bar) and Vinyl Room (a two-story listening lounge)
  • Food and beverage menus, including Nashville-made whiskeys and spirits.
