Like clockwork, you can always count on Boston-bred celtic punks the Dropkick Murphys to do something special for St. Patrick’s Day; typically a full-on tour, which has brought them to Music City at least twice in recent years, though not since 2013. This season, the Murphys are plotting an extra special run, celebrating not only St.…

We announced a few months back that breakout indie rocker Kurt Vile and his band The Violators would return to Nashville on Feb. 25, for a performance at Exit/In. As expected, that show promptly sold out, and, fortunately found a considerably larger home at Marathon Music Works (original tickets will still be honored). With support from Xylouris White, who we caught…
