Jack White with a Bonnaroo slot?
We started thinking about the possibility of Jack White rolling down I-24 from his Nashville home to play a set at Bonnaroo as soon as we heard that first track from his solo record Blunderbuss. That Bonnaroo rumor mill continues to swirl with JWiii’s announcement as a headliner at the Sasquatch Festival. While he…

The Kills & Jeff The Brotherhood are streaming live on NPR tonight!
Nashville’s own Jeff The Brotherhood are currently on tour opening for The Kills. They are at Washington DC’s 9:30 Club tonight, and NPR will be streaming the entire show on their website. There isn’t much more that I need to tell you about that. If you know who these bands are… you will understand…

Real Estate announces more tour dates. No Nashville date… or is there?
Real Estate gave us the glimpse to that highly acclaimed sophomore LP Days back in July when they played that Sounds Like Summer gig at The Hard Rock in Nashville. Days released in October of last year, and was on almost every Best of 2011 list that I saw. And, then there is that…

Do you know about Kansas Bible Company? They’ve been playing around the Nashville scene since moving to the east side of the river in the summer of 2011.

Jack White’s solo debut record due out on April 24th
While we may not be getting any new White Stripes material ever again, we can at least revel in the upcoming solo debut, titled Blunderbuss, from Jack White. Doesn’t debut just sound weird next to Jack White’s name? He has such an impressive catalog behind him that it’s strange to think this is the…

He’s My Brother She’s My Sister, The Basement, Tonight in Nashville
Why are indie band names so ridiculous? I just don’t really get it. I was having a couple of cold ones at The Village Pub with some new friends last night, and one mentioned they wanted to start a band named “The Chihuahuas Next Door”. See what I mean? Who knows… maybe people thought…

Bonnaroo Rumors as of January 30th 2012
We had a wildly popular Bonnaroo Rumors post that we published back in November laying out the ground work for the rumor mill to start swirling about this year’s Roo. We had to append an update after The Beach Boys announced a reunion tour. Then things really started to heat up after Coachella announced…
