Nashville SC already had an MLS start date, a temporary stadium, plans for a permanent stadium and a pair of executives and player signings in place. Now it has the logo to go along with it all.
The 2020 MLS expansion team unveiled its branding on Wednesday, revealing a rather simple, eight-sided, gold crest that features navy blue musical waves forming the shape of an "N" above the words "Nashville SC." With Nashville being Music City, the nod certainly fits the city's brand.
The crest ultimately wasn't that much of a surprise, as it had been accidentally leaked by apparel supplier Lids a week earlier and teased quite revealingly by the club in the days leading up to the official unveiling.
