Louisville has plenty of local musicians and musical exports who rep the 'Ville to a wider audience, but what about non-Louisvillian musicians who mention our city in their songs?
Inspired by a similar slideshow that CityBeat, one of our sister papers, made last year, we decided to put together this list of 22 songs that mention Louisville, with two caveats: one, the songs could not be by Jack Harlow, Bryson Tiller, My Morning Jacket, or other artists from Louisville; two, mentioning a Louisville Slugger without another reference to the city did not count.
