Sun Studio is one of the most famous and important recording studios in the world for a very good reason—this is the place where the blending of blues and country tunes gave birth to rock 'n' roll. Experience outtakes from recording sessions and touch Elvis Presley's first microphone, while admiring the priceless memorabilia.

Learn how the Sun label launched the careers of so many famous icons including Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, B.B. King, Roy Orbison, and of course the King of rock 'n' roll—Elvis. This famous recording site is still an active studio for current artists, including U2, Tom Petty, Matchbox 20, Paul Simon, and the pop band Maroon 5. You never know who you may run into during your visit.
