Nashville’s premiere lifestyle brand and friends of the site DCXV (you know, the I Believe In Nashville guys), are celebrating their birthday TONIGHT, Nov. 5 at The High Watt, by hosting a totally FREE (but still 18+) concert featuring performances from buzzworthy local rappers Chancellor Warhol and Jung Youth, two artists you’ve likely seen us rave about on countless occasions. Co-sponser PBR will…
The Basement has a really great lineup of Americana/folk bands set to perform tonight, Nov. 5! The headliners are Nashville’s own Great Peacock, a poppy roots duo (who perform live with a rhythm section) with great harmony and a lot of style. Opening is New Orleans singer-songwriter Andrew Duhon with his folksy blues trio and another…
Returning to Nashville for the third time this year (after claiming no tour plans upon reuniting last fall for a new album – but hey, you won’t catch us complaining), beloved indie rockers Copeland sure seem to be properly reunited. This marks their first true headlining touring since going on hiatus more than half a decade…

Soaked in reverb, the distorted guitars are as fuzzy as they possibly could be; the lyrics are often unintelligible but somehow manage to still be catchy. Their music can be droning at times, but in the best way possible. And while the debut album…
Out in support of one of the year’s best releases, British art rock outfit Django Django are set to play Nashville proper for the first time ever tonight, Nov. 3 at Cannery Ballroom with Wild Belle.

More than three years after their last Nashville club date, acclaimed prog rockers Coheed and Cambria have finally announced a return to Marathon Music Works, on March 15 with Glassjaw and Silver Snakes.
