What started as a small run of shows meant to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their beloved sophomore album, The Everglow, alt rock outfit Mae‘s tour quickly turned into a full-blown affair, which brought them to Exit/In last year for a triumphant Music City return. Since then, the group, who can at least partially claim Nashville…
While there’s certainly no shortage of New Year’s Eve events in Nashville, especially if you’re hoping to see some live music (we’ve told you about a few shows already, and have a full guide forthcoming), the biggest and most prestigious event of all is the city’s own free, downtown party, now dubbed “Jack Daniel’s…
Ahead of their forthcoming 15th album Oczy Mlody, out Jan. 13, and March 29 performance at War Memorial Auditorium in support, seminal psych rock outfit The Flaming Lips have given us yet another taste of what is being pegged as something of a return to form, with new single and accompanying video, “Sunrise (Eyes of The Young).” Following tracks “The Castle”…
The last time we reported yet another Nashville show announcement from living legend Willie Nelson it was late in 2015, and our world was a different place.

For this, our 5th year, we move our celebration to The 5 Spot (RIP The…
With Christmas falling on a Sunday next week, it will essentially shut down the local music scene. So, finish up your Christmas shopping, and then reward yourself with some live music. Obviously, we think that our Christmas Caroling Show at The 5 Spot takes top billing, there are plenty of shows to go around…
We’ve been looking forward to this one for a while now. Futurebirds return to Nashville tonight with their unique mix of southern rock and 70s psychedelia, along with the latest solo project from T. Hardy Morris. The show goes down tonight (Dec. 16) at Mercy Lounge, and tickets are still available for only $15.…
“Next likely Nashville success story” is a tag we toss around regularly, but with a scene so rich, it often feels justifiably applied. One longtime favorite definitely worthy of that descriptor are Future Thieves, who, over the last few years, we’ve watched grow from a promising new local rock group to a critically acclaimed, soon…
