STRAUSS X RYMAN AUDITORIUM

A man walks down a hallway with wooden floors, framed posters on one wall, and guitars displayed on the other, looking up thoughtfully.

THE HEART OF COUNTRY MUSIC

“The Mother Church of Country Music,” Nashville’s landmark Ryman Auditorium has shaped country music for generations. It is the former home of the Grand Ole Opry, the site of iconic performances by the world’s most famous musicians, and it’s a pilgrimage site for country music fans everywhere. Today, Ryman Auditorium hosts approximately 250 performances each year, bringing together artists of all genres and audiences from around the world to its historic stage.

“Country music fans know: If you play at the Ryman, you've made it in Nashville! The playbill of the iconic temple of country music is a Who's Who of the greatest performers.” 

– Henning Strauss, CEO

TRADITIONAL CRAFT

In this partnership, STRAUSS is honoring the craftsmanship, history, and working hands behind the music at the Ryman Auditorium. With the help of Hatch Show Print, we’re producing an exclusive collection of durable, technical gloves and T-shirts for the hands that keep the legendary performances running. Together with Ryman Auditorium, we’re starting a new working history, honoring every crew member who takes part.
