What's Going on With Music City Tippler?

Midtown's Music City Tippler has gone through quite a few personnel changes since opening last August. First, a mass exodus occurred earlier this year, with the opening executive chef, general manager, bar manager and additional staff parting ways with the restaurant. Then a new head chef was brought on in February, only to be replaced in March by Chris Futrell. And word was out earlier this week that Futrell has moved on to become a partner in the new Animal Restaurant Group. So as it currently stands, The Tippler has no executive chef and no general manager, and tips are starting to come in that the restaurant could be in financial trouble and ownership is considering bringing in a third-party group to take over management. So what exactly is going on over there? Know something we don't? Send it to the tipline.
