Brent Arledge is the most prolific piano tuner in Nashville, and possibly the world. He tunes the Ryman, the Schermerhorn and the Grand Ole Opry. He services dozens of studios and is trusted in the homes of countless Nashville musicians. Arledge’s craft can be heard on every song coming out of Music Row that features piano.
But elite piano tuning is grueling work. It’s taxing on the body, it strains relationships, and it never leads to fame or glory.
Arledge is the subject of episode 3 of WNXP's Music Citizens podcast. You can listen everywhere you get your podcasts on Monday.
