Nearly a decade has passed since seminal, best-selling, award winning country trio the Dixie Chicks last played Bridgestone Arena (then called the Gaylord Entertainment Center), as part of their last headlining U.S. tour before taking time off, time which turned into a number of years of intermittent activity and little in the way of new music. Over the…

Prolific west coast rocker Ty Segall just played Mercy Lounge last night with Fuzz, one his many side projects that have become so numerous we can barely keep count, but, already, the acclaimed artist has announced a return to the same spot, this time in support of his solo work, on Feb. 22.

By the time pop superstar Justin Bieber returns to Bridgestone Arena next year, on June 27, nearly three and a half years will have passed since his last Music City outing. In that time, the Biebz, inarguably one of music’s most polarizing figures, has been the subject of many a scandal, well-documented public bad behavior, and a generally negative tide of…
In an apparent attempt to promote their current tour of Europe, local grunge pop darlings Bully teamed up with tourmates (and site faves) FIDLAR this week to cover The Magnetic Fields’ “Absolutely Cuckoo,” the opening track from 1999 concept album 69 Love Songs. Trading in their usual penchant for loud, angsty, punk, the two groups actually take on a…
I first encountered Farewell Flight nearly a decade ago, then a Pennsylvania-based indie rock outfit, and one that immediately had me hooked.
