The past two months have effectively been our Bonnaroo summer break. But, much like the summer break of grade-school past, a new year is about to begin, and we’re trudging ahead in uncertainty, with only guesses as to what’s in store. Though it’s still a solid ten months away, we now at least know the dates…
This season of Live on the Green kicked off last week with performances from Matt and Kim, ZZ Ward, and Gin Wigmore, followed by an after-party with special guests Cherub. We checked them both out and had a blast; the first great night in what is sure to be an incredible season. Things keep moving this week,…
We loved Coin when we caught them back at the winter edition of East Nashville Underground. Their live show further wowed us when they recently opened for Paper Route and HalfNoise at Exit/In. However, it’s their brand new single, “Atlas,” the second from their latest EP, 1992, that really seals the deal. Coin have always had a knack for…
As you probably noticed, the recap took a week off as I returned last week from Lollapalooza. We’ve got coverage of that fest coming throughout this week, along with previews of another exciting festival: East Nashville Underground. ENU has long been an important part of No Country’s local coverage, and we encourage you all especially…

We gave you the rundown on the whole lineup announcement last month, and we’ll…

This marks the group’s first stop in Music City since the fall of 2011. The band recently toured in support of the 10 year anniversary of their seminal…
The first Live on the Green of the season kicks off tonight (rain or shine) at Public Square Park, and we couldn’t have asked for a better inaugural bill: Matt and Kim, ZZ Ward, and Gin Wigmore. For the uninitiated, Live on the Green is an annual, six-week, totally free, all ages, outdoor concert series, which features impressive national and…
We recently caught up with Nashville electro-rock outfit Wild Cub in Chicago, where they performed at this year’s Lollapalooza festival. That feature is coming soon but, for now, we wanted to share with you their brand new video for “Blacktide,” which just premiered over at SPIN. The track, which was released last month, is a bit moodier…
