Murder on Music Row season 2

Murder on Music Row season 2

For decades, David "Skull" Schulman ran The Rainbow Room in Nashville, a club known for its edgy mix of country music, burlesque shows, and other illicit activity. But the city was shocked in 1998 when the colorful 81-year-old local icon was murdered in his empty nightclub, his French poodle the only witness to the crime.

Authorities suspected someone was after the wad of cash Skull always kept in the bib of his Hee Haw overalls. Despite questionable witness statements and no evidence connecting him to the scene, prosecutors convicted a 17-year-old for the crime. All this time later, the question remains: is the right man in prison for killing Skull Schulman?

In season two of “Murder on Music Row: The Skull at the End of the Rainbow,” Keith Sharon and Kirsten Fiscus of The Tennessean reopen the famous case, pulling apart the original investigation and looking for new evidence. The podcast takes a deep dive into the stories of the famous and infamous characters who frequented the Rainbow Room, and the eccentric club owner’s place in Nashville history.

OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "MURDER ON MUSIC ROW: THE SKULL AT THE END OF THE RAINBOW" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
