Sort of Nashvillians, The Black Lips, are paying homage to their new hometown with a cover of the Willie Nelson & Waylon Jennings country music classic “Mama’s Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys“. The release will be available on Record Store Day (April 20th) as part of a split 7” with…
It’s been a little over a year since we premiered The Joy Of Painting’s debut release Asterisk, and those catchy beats are still rocking in our head. While I am sure that their ears are still ringing from all those slaps they got back in April, it didn’t effect their ability to put together…
Paste Magazine told you to keep an eye on this band last year, and we listened. Nashville electro-rockers Vinyl Thief certainly got a bit more attention with their recent Road to Bonnaroo performance, and, after their successful kickstarter campaign, the anticipation for their upcoming full length debut later this year keeps building. If you…
In the flood of emails that come through our digital gates, it’s often hard to find something (sometimes, anything) that truly sounds fresh and new. I mean, it’s hard enough just to listen to a lot of the stuff that we get, so, when we get our hands on something so atypical of any Nashville…
Who doesn’t like music festivals in the summer time? We do, we do!!! Another set of Nashville party folks, Neoteric Nashville, have stepped it up, and are putting a pretty fun little shindig over at The East Room (of East Nashville Underground fame). We’re talking 12 bands over 2 stages and it’s hosted by…

We spent last night at another capacity crowd for the second installment of the 2013 edition of Road To Bonnaroo at Mercy Lounge. We’ve been judging this event for a while now, and, honestly, last night was one of the more evenly balanced bills that I have seen in quite some time. For…
It’s been a stellar week of music with all the SXSW bands swinging through town on their way back to their respective homes, and this weekend is going to be no different. There’s a lot going on in general, but there is no reason that you won’t be able to catch a show this…
Now that the collective hangover is fading, the news outlets are starting to publish their best of lists from this year’s South By Southwest. If you didn’t see we published our recap a couple of days ago, and it’s been fun to see who we were standing next to. It’s even more fun to…
Dawes was getting in the spirit for their spirited SXSW run (they played an unbelievable 14 sets down there) when they stopped in Nashville last week, and what more fitting of a spot to play before a SXSW marathon than a run through our own Marathon Village. Lightning 100 was there to bring you…
