YOUR DMC TEAM
OUR STORY
Over 30 years ago a young entertainer would occasionally get a call asking him if he would gather together some of his talented friends, toss a few costumes into his van, and put on shows for folks visiting Nashville. Things went so well that after a while he decided they could use a bit of scenery too, so within a few years he’d built a scene shop. Soon he discovered that his clients wanted help with their meetings and parties as well, so he assembled a cast of producers, engineers, entertainers, and artists. Calls started coming in from people all across the country asking him to bring his expertise and talented crew to help with their events, so he and his friends began traveling all over the world producing meetings, shows and events. His reputation kept growing, along with the city in which his journey began. In fact, Nashville has become a world-class destination, just as Gary Musick Productions and Gary Musick Scenic have become world-class companies. Today the entertainer still gets calls from visitors to Nashville, and now they want more than entertainment, scenery, and production. Instead, they simply ask “Can’t you just handle everything relating to my event?”
The answer is Destination Musick City.

“I am incredibly appreciative of all your hard work. You brought ideas to life! I was so disappointed when I came home to significant budget constraints that kind of veto’d all our ideas walking through your warehouse. But you didn’t let that slow us down which I greatly appreciate. The photo booth was amazing and was a great addition to our evening at Analog. Overall the whole event was wildly successful. Thank you for being so supportive and available. You are top notch professionals.

“Destination Musick City has a second to none team. We wouldn’t be able to execute our Sales Meeting without their attention to detail, budget, and never-ending creativity. Every year our partnership with them grows and continues to improve. They bring us exciting and original ideas that wow our attendees. Journeys not only values them as crucial business partners, but great friends as well. One of the things we appreciate most is their integrity. We could not do our jobs without their team.”

“I just wanted to thank you for your stellar professionalism for our One Million Strong event in Nashville, Tennessee. It was a complicated and busy day from sound to stage production to entertainment. The event was wonderful. The Destination Musick City and Gary Musick Productions teams executed flawlessly but more importantly our team felt that every step of the way your staff worked with us, listened to us, and with every challenge found solutions together. The best part was you stayed on budget!!! You will always be our first call.”

“Destination Musick City, and in particular, Susan Raque, was a joy to work with! Susan’s choice of décor pieces captured the group’s vision and fit the space wonderfully. Susan was extremely responsive to all questions and she knew the venue extremely well, which makes my job as a planner so much easier! I look forward to returning to Nashville and being able to work with the Destination Musick City team again!”
We look forward to working with them again in the future!”
