Don’t Miss Empires w/ Jule Vera | TONIGHT @ The High Watt

Blending elements of alt rock, garage, indie, and post-punk, Empires are…

Foo Fighters to Play Bridgetone Arena Oct. 5, 2015

Walk the Moon to Play Cannery Ballroom April 24
Cincinnati poppy, indie rockers Walk the Moon most recently wowed us at Lightning 100’s fall Blocktoberfest. Didn’t make it, or in need of another helping? You’re in luck, because the group are set to return to Cannery Ballroom (where they played last fall) for an April 24 performance with The Griswolds. Walk the Moon recently announced that the followup to their…

JEFF the Brotherhood Will Apparently Play Dino’s TONIGHT (For Free)
Less than a month after obliterating The End with a three-night residency, local garage rock duo and Infinity Cat founders JEFF the Brotherhood are apparently set to play their latest hometown show at a pretty unlikely join: Dino’s. We recently learned that Dino’s has changed hands, and, while that news certainly got a few East Nashvillians’ feathers…

The Decemberists to Play The Ryman April 13
After a nearly three year hiatus, which allowed members some time to pursue other projects, Portland indie folk outfit The Decemberists recently re-emerged with news of a new album, What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World, due out Jan. 20, and a new single, “Make You Better.” As well-rested bands with new releases are wont to do,…

Gang of Four, What’s Left of Them Anyway, to Play Mercy Lounge March 14
Perhaps the single most criminally under-appreciated post-punk band in regards to their influence on the movement, UK rockers Gang of Four have been active off and on since 1977, famously and most prominently reuniting with their original, seminal lineup a decade ago. And, while members have ebbed and flowed, the team of vocalist Jon King…

Watch Echmosmith Perform on ‘Fallon’ Ahead of Feb. 12 3rd & Lindsley Show
We often warn you that shows will sell out, and, still, a portion of people don’t buy their tickets early, and are disappointed when show time rolls around. So, let us reiterate: breakout pop rock sibling act Echosmith are returning to 3rd & Lindsey on Feb. 12 with The Colourist, and it will absolutely sell out. How do we know this? Well, aside the…

[REMINDER] Don’t Miss Jenny Lewis w/ Waxahatchee | Nov. 15 @ Marathon Music Works
Six years. That’s how long it’s been since indie pop songstress Jenny Lewis last played a proper solo date in Nashville. She blew us away this summer at Forecastle Fest in Louisville, and her latest release, The Voyager, is a contender for our favorite of the year, so understandably, we were disappointed when Lewis wasn’t on the…
