Grammy nominated Brooklyn hard rock trio Highly Suspect stopped by Conan last night to perform “Bloodfeather,” the latest single from their critically acclaimed 2015 album Mister Asylum. Capitalizing on the platform, singer Johnny Stevens took a moment to urge America to vote for “anybody but Trump,” before launching into the song. As we recently announced, the group are set to play The…
Seattle-based surf-tinged poppy punk outfit Tacocat fell onto our radar in 2014, with the release of their criminally underrated sophomore album NVM, and subsequent tour that brought them to The Stone Fox. Much to our delight, the buzzworthy up and comers have just announced plans to release a new album, Lost Time, April 1 via Hardly Art, and will return…
We had a blast at this year’s inaugural Pilgrimage Music & Culture Festival in nearby Franklin, and had high hopes that the freshman event would go over well enough to continue for many years to come. Despite perhaps being slightly less attended than hoped for (though nowhere near the lows at fellow first time event Ink N…
Three rock legends and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, Heart, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, and Cheap Trick have announced a lengthy summer tour, aptly dubbed the “Rock Hall Three For All,” which passes through Music City as it winds down at the end of the summer, Sept. 19 at Ascend Amphitheater. We surely don’t need to fill you in about…
Local rockers Step Sisters quickly caught our eye, after coming together in 2014 and releasing a self-titled EP early last year. We’ve told you about the group a number of times, notably as part of some great local shows, and the relative newcomers are quickly becoming a “need to know” band on the rise. Step Sisters…
The Whistles & The Bells, the local, eclectic musical vehicle of former Cadillac Sky frontman Bryan Simpson, have a busy January planned, with performances Jan. 15 at The High Watt with Albatross, Jan. 22 at The Basement with ChessBoxer, and Jan. 30, also at The Basement, with Jon Latham. While we’d highly recommend any/all of these great, low-dough…
After an unbelievably huge (and entirely well-deserved) 2015, local grunge pop group Bully are returning home for their first Nashville show of the new year, Jan. 22 at The Basement East! This marks the band’s first time performing at the east side’s new favorite haunt, and it’ll be extra rad with local rockers Music Band and Chicago’s Fake Limbs on the bill. Tickets…
Back in the fall of 2012, beloved indie/pop punk group Say Anything packed out the Exit/In, for their first Nashville show in nearly eight years. It was epic, and ever since, we’ve been not-so-patiently awaiting their return. That’ll finally happen on May 22, when the Max Bemis-led group head back to Nashville for a performance at Marathon Music Works with mewithoutYou,…
Formed nearly a decade ago in Long Island, New York, indie pop/rock duo The Narrative sprung onto the scene in 2008 with their debut EP, Just Say Yes, and continued to build buzz with their 2010 full-length, self-titled debut. Several successful tour outings, tons of media praise, and a loyal fanbase forged from DIY ethics characterized the following…
The nearby, annual Bonnaroo Music Arts Festival quietly began updating its website late last night, unveiling the visual theme for this summer’s 15th anniversary installment. This led us to believe that the full lineup might be arriving as early as today, but, thanks to a graphic spotted by The Bonnarooster, it appears that we’ll have to…
