About Alabama Music Hall of Fame

The museum sits in Tuscumbia and was created to recognize Alabama music achievers across all styles. It grew out of an effort by Muscle Shoals area music professionals and was set up by a 1980 state law. Visitors can explore exhibits that celebrate the state's musicians and their contributions. The building is a large facility devoted to showcasing these artists, and it also offers group tours, school programs, and a recording booth for visitors.
