Riley Green Adds Bar Owner to His Resume With Nashville Venue

Riley Green Adds Bar Owner to His Resume With Nashville Venue

Riley Green is joining a long list of country stars who’ve opened bars in their names in recent years. However, he’s doing it a bit differently than the traditional Broadway watering hole.

Per the Nashville Business Journal, Green will soon open Riley Green’s Duck Blind. A permit filed on Aug. 7 indicates he’ll be taking over the former location of Winners Bar & Grill in Midtown (1913 Division St.).

This is off the beaten path from the more touristy Broadway, where most celeb bars are set up. Winners Bar and Grill posted to their social media pages in March 2024 indicating they were undergoing a “facelift.”

Green’s bar is targeting a fall open, so it will be a bit before fans can stop by. Judging by its name, Duck Blind, camouflage might be involved in decorating the space.

The singer — who is featured on Ella Langley’s viral hit “You Look Like You Love Me” — is the second artist to open a bar in the last few months: Lainey Wilson put her name on Lainey Wilson’s Bell Bottoms Up Restaurant & Bar in May. That took over the former home of dissolved country duo Florida Georgia Line‘s FGL House.

More details on Green’s bar space — including a first look and official ribbon cutting date — are TBA.

19 Country Stars With Their Own Bars + Restaurants

Of all of the side hustles country artists could partake in, opening a bar or restaurant is the most fitting — and very common. After all, many of these stars got their start on a barstool, tip jar nearby, playing their music for anyone who would listen.

These places feel like home for many of these singers. Over the years, several artists have gotten into the bar or restaurant game, and for a select few, brands have turned into franchises with several locations and/or concepts — we’re looking at you, Jimmy Buffett!

Let’s take a look at the country star food and entertainment venues that have opened over the years.
