Nashville, Tennessee is already known to many Americans as Music City. It is famous for country music in the United States and is home to many recording companies. But recently, music recorded for video games, television shows and movies could earn Nashville a new name, Soundtrack City. The city is known for very good studio musicians. They work mostly on recordings rather than live performances. Musicians in Nashville have helped to make thesoundtracksfor some of the most popular video games in the U.S. These include Madden, FIFA, Call of Duty and Star Wars. Also, more production companies have been bringing their film and TV soundtrack recordings to Nashville, including Netflix, Showtime, Sony and Focus Features. A program the state of Tennessee established last year gives financial support to companies for doing business in the city. Nashville has become one of the two or three major places to record in the world for film, game and television, Steve Schnur told the Associated Press. He is president of music for Electronic Arts, or EA, the video game company.
