The third coming of “Laguna Beach” is here, and this time we’re headed to Nashville
If you feel like your life hasn’t been dramatic enough lately, we have some good news for ya. The brilliant mind behind Laguna Beach and The Hills is bringing a new series set in Nashville to CMT. It’s called Music City, and it’s going to — surprise, surprise — follow a group of young, emerging artists in Nashville as they make their way through the music industry.
Of course, in addition to career-related drama, there’s gong to be a lot of personal drama, because…duh, that’s why we tune in. And we wouldn’t pass up on this third coming of Laguna Beach (but, set in Nashville!) — arriving after the second coming, MTV’s Siesta Key.
The eight-episode first season will premiere alongside CMT’s Nashville next year.
And this sounds like a pretty blissful TV union, if you ask us.
Adam DiVello is the brains behind the operation. He was a development/supervising producer for Laguna Beach and creator of The Hills and The City. He’s really excited about the prospect of expanding his ~creative vision~ to include music.
“Music has always played a huge role in the storytelling process of my past series and with Music City, we’ll take that element to another level, as we document the real-life struggles, heartaches, and drama of those chasing their dreams of stardom.”
He’s also pumped about the new location, and we are too! It’s nice to see a show set outside of LA and New York every once in a while, you know? Plus, Nashville as a city has such a rich music scene. So we’re sure DiVello will have no shortage of material.
“Nashville is such an exciting city and I can’t wait to share with the world the stories of this incredibly talented cast we’ve put together.”
Music City is def getting a spot on our DVR rotation.
