In a Sunday email to USA TODAY, Davis confirmed that he had been working on planned changes to the mural last week, including “covering up Taylor and adding Brad Paisley.”
“In the end, the changes are not up to me, but rather the owners of the Legends Corner tape … They intended from the start to change it once in a while, directing some artists and adding others,” Davis wrote.
The plan is to add three more country stars to the painting, including one artist “already drawn between Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks” – which Davis will not reveal yet. Others will add throughout January as weather permits.
Regarding Swift’s removal, Davis says, “I’ve heard many complaints here in Nashville about Taylor being on the wall with Country Legends since she’s currently focused mainly on pop music. Some drunken bar hoppers spat on her image specifically, and they felt betrayed by Before her project from Country. I think that’s expected, but overall, Nashville residents love it as much as I do. “
