It’s been nearly a year since we first introduced you to Touma, the solo project of local indie staple Kacie Williams, with the premiere of her etherial, Aaron Marsh produced debut (at least under the Touma moniker) single, “Bodyguard.” Since then, Williams has stayed extraordinarily busy, performing as part of local emo/indie outfit Early Humans, and…

It’s been several months since the nearby Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, originally slotted for its typical June weekend with such a great lineup that it sold out in record time, then rescheduled for what would’ve been this weekend as Covid effectively put the entire live music industry on pause, before, like every single 2020 festival…

Regular readers may remember our love for Seattle indie punk group Tacocat, a band we always make a point to recommend any time they stop through town.

The past month of social distancing amidst the spread of COVID-19 has, undoubtedly, been an unprecedented situation for everyone around the world- difficult, stressful, and a financial burden for even those lucky enough to be healthy, and beyond tragic for those who’ve suffered illness or lost loved ones. Like many segments of industry affected,…
Atlanta raised, Nashville based indie folk rock singer Caroline Culver made her stunning debut just a few weeks ago with vulnerable and earnest first single “Honest,” a haunting and heartfelt navigation of maintaining an honest and true sense of self and emotional clarity in the midst of a relationship that isn’t right.
