Story Circle: Memphis Music Edition- In This Place 2026

Story Circle: Memphis Music Edition is a night for people who love this city and the music that flows through it. Hosted at the legendary Stax Museum, this gathering brings together voices from Memphis music to share the stories behind the songs that shaped our sound and our culture. It feels like a live behind the music experience, where laughter, memory, and real stories meet the records that made Memphis famous around the world.

Hosted by Jared Boyd of WYXR, the evening blends storytelling, listening, and conversation in a relaxed and engaging way. You will hear how iconic songs came together, what studio moments were really like, and how Memphis music continues to influence artists today. Just as important, there will be space for people in the room to share their own Memphis music stories, creating real connections across generations and experiences. Guided listening moments, open conversation, and audience sharing keep the night lively, personal, and full of discovery.

Story Circle: Memphis Music Edition is part of In This Place 2026: This is Memphis, a citywide season of culture, community, and capital rooted in Memphis history and powered by The Big We. Throughout the season, people gather to connect, share stories, and experience the city in ways that feel meaningful and fun. This night celebrates Memphis music as living culture and invites everyone in the room to be part of the story that continues to shape the city.
