Though they remain one of the hardest working bands in pop punk, and seemingly tour pretty much nonstop, New Found Glory haven’t made their way to Music City since a 2010 outing with Paramore (and haven’t headlined here since 2008). That’s all about to change April 9, however, when NFG play Mercy Lounge for the first…
Every year, immediately following Thanksgiving, there’s one major thing on our minds. And no, it’s not Christmas, but it might as well be; it’s Bonnaroo.

Were you looking forward to Cusses at Exit/In next week? So were we, which is why it is with much sadness that we must impart the news that the group will not be performing at Quixotic II on Dec. 18. Fortunately, the rest of the bill (Hot Action Cop, Switchmen, and Asheira) are all still set to begin their show at 8 p.m. Furthermore,…
Since the release of their eighth album, Turn Blue, earlier this year, we’ve been anxiously awaiting Nashville based rockers The Black Keys‘ return to Bridgestone Arena. We first announced this one all the way back in May, right around the time the Keys played a pop up show at Mercy Lounge, and are delighted by their choice…
We already knew that Jack White‘s Jan. 28 performance at Bridgestone Arena would be special, but, now, with the surprise announcement of Loretta Lynn as the evening’s opener, it just got even more special. A country legend and longtime friend and collaborator of White’s, Lynn most recently played two sold out shows at The Ryman Auditorium. Loretta and Jack first teamed…

Adding to that tantalizing list of options, Mercy Lounge and The…
