Spread over six stories, the space features Rodney Scott\u2019s Whole Hog BBQ from James Beard Award-winning pitmaster Rodney Scott, a dueling-pianos bar called Friendly Shadows, and a studio for live broadcasting Church\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Outsiders Radio<\/em>&nbsp;SiriusXM channel. The true centerpiece of the facility is the Neon Steeple, a two-story, intimate ticketed concert venue that was inaugurated with a 19-date residency of shows by Church himself. Notably, that room has already quickly developed a solid reputation for having exceptional sound thanks in large part to an L-Acoustics Ai Series professional sound system installed by Clair Global Integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CGI System Designer Joe Anderson recalls that there were some unique challenges in outfitting the space: &#8220;The building\u2019s tall, skinny corner location and reflective surfaces, like stained glass windows and brick walls, required creative solutions,&#8221; he explains. \u201cThe venue\u2019s multilevel audience area, with fans on the third floor and seated in balcony pews, demanded a versatile sound system, and L-Acoustics\u2019 A10i enclosure emerged as the right choice for this project.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"741\" data-id=\"432820\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-1-1024x741.jpg\" alt=\"Clair Global Integration recently installed an L-Acoustics Ai Series loudspeaker sound system at Chief\u2019s on Broadway in downtown Nashville\" class=\"wp-image-432820\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-1-1024x741.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-1-300x217.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-1-768x556.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Clair Global Integration recently installed an L-Acoustics Ai Series loudspeaker system at Chief\u2019s on Broadway in downtown Nashville<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"582\" data-id=\"432821\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-2-1024x582.jpg\" alt=\"Coaxial X8 speakers line the Neon Steeple\u2019s stage providing front-fill\" class=\"wp-image-432821\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-2-1024x582.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-2-300x171.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-2-768x436.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Coaxial X8 speakers line the Neon Steeple\u2019s stage providing front-fill<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The main PA showcases the flexibility and power of the L-Acoustics Ai Series.

Four <a href=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/products\/x8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X8<\/a> speakers serve as front-fills, while four KS21i subs reside under the stage.

Eight compact X8 speakers surround the stage, complemented by two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/products\/sb15m\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SB15m subs<\/a> above and one more X8 for the FOH booth. Each piano enjoys two X8 stereo monitor wedges. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/products\/la4x\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LA4X<\/a> amplified controllers power all systems, ensuring consistent, high-quality sound throughout the venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesse Free, Chief&#8217;s production manager, emphasizes the venue&#8217;s unique position in Nashville&#8217;s music scene. &#8220;While our ground floor offers the lively honky-tonk atmosphere visitors expect, our upstairs venue sets us apart,\u201d he says. \u201cHaving a professional L-Acoustics sound system immediately signals to musicians and fans that sound quality here is paramount.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anderson adds, \u201cA10i\u2019s compact size and high performance were crucial. It delivers the power and musicality that Eric wanted, allowing us to create a true concert experience in an intimate club setting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"838\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"432824\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-3-838x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Natalie Hemby, seen with X12 monitor wedges onstage, during her recent The Truth About A Song residency at Chief\u2019s (photo credit: @brotherdalecreative)\" class=\"wp-image-432824\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-3-838x1024.jpg 838w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-3-246x300.jpg 246w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-3-768x938.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-3.jpg 982w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 838px) 100vw, 838px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Natalie Hemby, seen with X12 monitor wedges onstage, during her recent\u00a0<em>The Truth About A Song<\/em>\u00a0residency at Chief\u2019s\u00a0<em>(photo credit: @brotherdalecreative)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"838\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"432825\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-4-838x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A packed house at the intimate Neon Steeple, with A10i sound system underbalcony speakers in view (photo credit: @brotherdalecreative)\" class=\"wp-image-432825\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-4-838x1024.jpg 838w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-4-246x300.jpg 246w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-4-768x938.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/la-chiefs-4.jpg 982w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 838px) 100vw, 838px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A packed house at the intimate Neon Steeple, with A10i underbalcony speakers in view\u00a0<em>(photo credit: @brotherdalecreative)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Chief&#8217;s stands out in Nashville\u2019s evolving entertainment landscape.
