As a solid reminder that our little ‘Ville is in the spotlight these days, GQ made a trip down to Music City to peep a few of our faves. With shoutouts to Mas Tacos, The Ettes, Karen Elson, Grimey’s, Third Man, The Whigs, Joshua Black Wilkins, Nikki Lane, 308, The Zombie Shop, The Five…
Happy Friday to you all. I’m going to have to make this short and sweet because I’m going, going, back, back to Cali, Cali. Sorry for the Biggie moment there, but I’m heading out to watch two of my best friends marry each other. Good times, good times. Yes, I’ll congratulate them and have…
Do you know how I know These United States are going to be good? They are opening for Willie Nelson this year. Do you know who I saw open for Willie Nelson the first time I saw him? Norah Jones. Yup, that’s right, Norah Jones opened for Willie, and now she is recording with…
It’s freaking summer time, and, as Jeff The Brotherhood would say, “It’s so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so hot.” Might as well embrace it with some sultry nights around town this summer. Specifically, I’m talking about two of the best summer events in the city…. Sounds Like Summer and Live On The…
When you hear the term post-rock who do you think of? I guess that answer partly depends on your age. If you are my age or a little older, this might include Don Caballero, Slint, or Tortoise. If you are a little younger or remained a fan of post-rock, there is no way you…

Well, Kreayshawn’s pretty much out of the collective conscience (I actually did get an email from her the other day,…
It’s been a hot minute since we have heard from Kansas Bible Company, though I did do a double take as I drove by “Hotel Chicamauga” after burgers and beers the other night. Though it might have been a minute since I talked about them, it’s for how great their live show is… it’s…
When we got the call to give some pairs of tickets away for this show, I was at a bit of a loss because I am not too familiar with the music of Joe Purdy. It was truly serendipitous that I had met Kristyn mere nights before. Kristyn is the brainchild behind Apple Road,…
It’s another stellar night in Nashville down on Cannery Row. Make your plans and get out to see some live music tonight. So, let’s get started with Yeasayer. Unless you have been under a rock for the past couple of months and have never heard of big time music blogs like Pitchspoon, Stereoyum, or…
Man, it was a rough night for fans of Keane last night in Nashville. An NES transformer wire burned up outside the venue due to it being undersized. For safety sake, Marathon decided to evacuate and cancel the rest of the show. Super bummer for those fans that may have traveled any distance to…
