The Memphis Rock 'n' Soul Museum is dedicated to telling and preserving the story of America's musical roots.

The Memphis Music Hall of Fame is a music history museum renowned for housing a collection of artifacts and memorabilia from America's most famous musicians – namely from the genres of soul, blues, rock and roll, and pop.
