Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past week, you know that we’re teaming up with Third Shift Lager and some of our pals Electric Western Records, Elevent Productions, and East Nashville Underground for a one-night, two-stage, ten-band bill celebrating the diversity of Nashville’s independent music scene, and to send off the bands that have been selected to represent Nashville…

We don’t even feel like we are fully recovered from my ENU hangover, and another weekend is upon us. This is a very busy weekend for the Nashville music scene, and you should enjoy in moderation. Both because that is the safe and mature thing to do, but also because next weekend we are…

Those of you that have followed this rag for a while know that we’ve got a soft spot in our ears for The Kingston Springs. They were one of the first bands in Nashville that I promptly started bragging on when I began force feeding my musical opinions into your eyes, and that hasn’t…

Attention Artists: You think you have what it takes to make it in this town, or you wouldn’t spend all your time and hard earned money doing what you do. So, why wouldn’t you enter to win a spot on the radio in Nashville? Lightning 100 has teamed up with “Welcome to 1979” studio,…
