Upstart Nashville pysch outfit Promised Land Sound burst onto the scene with their self-titled debut in 2013. That record caught the attention of everyone around town from Jack White to Alabama Shakes, the latter of which took them out on the road for a string of dates. The boys did find some time to settle…
We’ve previously brought you the first two singles from Rayland Baxter’s Imaginary Man, which drops on ATO Records on August 14th. The first single “Yellow Eyes” was an introspective affair that was an awesome introduction into the newest batch of gems from the local songwriter, while the second single “Mr Rodriguez” was more of a poppy ode to…
Blog favorite and general all-around bad ass, Patrick Sweany has just dropped a new single, “First Of The Week”, from his upcoming 7th LP, Daytime Turned To Nighttime, due out September 18th on Nine Mile Records. The single debuted on Paste last week, and in the write up Sweany describes this as his “grown up…
After their killer Halloween show last year, STS9 returns to War Memorial Auditorium on November 14th. Formally referred to as Sound Tribe Sector 9, STS9 plays an interesting mashup between electronic music, instrumental rock, and jam music. Those that have seen them live, know that this is where they shine with an intense set, and one of the…

The album is clearly inspired by a love of the 80’s, and Adam McCants (vocals/writers) and Stacy Hogan (producer/multi-instrumentalist) have…
Indie rockers Modest Mouse have announced a show at Nashville’s War Memorial Auditorium on October 13th! We just had the chance to see the band at Forecastle in Louisville last weekend, where they had one of the most memorable (and packed) sets of the festival. The band is currently touring in support of their 6th…
Sadly (in this writer’s opinion) Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr has dropped the Nascar reference, and shortened their name to simply Jr Jr, but the rebranding won’t effect their synthy danceable indie rock sounds. Those of you who have read No Country for long know that this band was partially responsible for our humble beginnings, after a…
British electro art-rockers Django Django are touring in support of their 2015 release, Born Under Saturn, and they have just announced a tour with a stop at Nashville’s Cannery Ballroom on November 3rd!

Gifted songwriting legend, Sufjan Stevens just announced a date at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on November 11th. The talented musician is touring in support of his incredible 7th full length album, Carrie & Lowell, Stevens mother and step-father. The album was largely written as a message (and surely a coping mechanism) after the death of…
