REVIEW: Destroyer w/ Jennifer Castle| 10.10.15 @ Mercy Lounge
•
Destroyer w/ Jennifer Castle Mercy Lounge; Nashville, TN October 10, 2015 Review by Chris Clancy. It’s been four and half years since we last got an album out of Destroyer, the ongoing project of Canadian singer-songwriter Dan Bejar (though I suppose there was the just-for-laughs stopgap EP, Five Spanish Songs, back in 2013).

Catch Destroyer w/ Jennifer Castle | Saturday, Oct. 10 @ Mercy Lounge!
•
As we announced last month, Destroyer play tomorrow night, Oct. 10 at Mercy Lounge! It took four years for band mastermind Dan Bejar to come up with a proper followup to Kaputt, his 2011 breakthrough, but Poison Season, released just last month, seems a shoo-in to make dozens of “best of 2015” lists. Tickets for the sure to be…

Chris Robinson Brotherhood to Play 3rd and Lindsley Oct. 6!
•
The Black Crowes may be on indefinite hiatus, again, but the Chris Robinson Brotherhood has been picking up the slack with three studio albums and a limited edition four-record(!) live set since 2012. Maybe all that activity has something to do with Chris hooking up with singer-songwriter Neal Casal, whose credits include work with…
