Japandroids, Tonight at Exit/In!
Japandroids (or JPNDRDS as I used to always see it stylized- whatever happened to that?) are a bit of an accident. The Canadian garage/noise rock duo had effectively called it quits before their debut album, Post-Nothing, had even seen a proper release. When the record not only saw a wide release, but was critically revered,…

Pinback and Solos, Tonight at Exit/In
The wonderful East Nashville Underground festival is kicking off tonight, but if you’re more of a two-band guy or gal, the Exit/In has another great option for you.

Paper Route, Canon Blue, The Last Bison- Tonight @ 3rd and Lindsley
Presented by Wedgwood Circle, Nashville natives Paper Route and Canon Blue headline a really fantastic show tonight at 3rd and Lindsley. With 5 great bands for only $10, I can’t think of a better way to spend your Thursday night (or, as I like to call it, East Nashville Underground Eve). After carving out…

New Release Spotlight | 11.13.12, Part 1
This week is a bit out of control for new releases. I tried my hardest to narrow them down, but there are just too many great new records to fit into one post, so I’m splitting it into two. I’ll give you five records each day (and a couple of bonus picks). The second…
