First Aid Kit w/ Samantha Crain The Ryman Auditorium; Nashville, TN October 29, 2014 Review by Philip Obenschain (@pobenschain). Photos by Mary-Beth Blankenship. Amazing and otherworldly as they were, no one seemed more excited about First Aid Kit‘s recent headlining debut at The Ryman Auditorium than First Aid Kit themselves. Though they hail from the suburbs of…
Bleachers w/ Wild Cub Cannery Ballroom; Nashville, TN October 29, 2014 Review by Philip Obenschain (@pobenschain). Photos by Matt Cairns. Bleachers are something of an anomaly. It’s not unusual for members of prominent bands to step into frontman roles and achieve similar acclaim, nor is it strange for members of bands to have lesser-known…
Taj Mahal. Photo by Jay Blakesberg. Taj Mahal City Winery, Nashville, TN October 31, 2014 Review by Jeff Moody Truth be told, Halloween is probably my least favorite “holiday” so what better way to spend it than with Taj Mahal at the City Winery and a legitimate reason not to have to wear a…
Many nights in Nashville, we wish we could be in two, or even three places at once.

Lucky for everyone, even by Music…

After seeing former member, Jason Isbell, the previous Saturday night, we were pumped to see the Drive-By Truckers also playing The Ryman a few days later. We were also interested in learning more about…
It’s time for our monthly, obligatory “how is it November already?” line. October flew by, and was packed with great music (just check out all of the previews, announcements, and show reviews from last week below if you don’t believe us). Between Halloween, a pop up Foo Fighters show, and some seriously exciting upcoming concert announcements,…

So, perhaps, you could chalk this post up to wishful thinking, and, certainly, we have a bit less of a pattern to follow than…
Earlier this year, beloved alt-rock group Anberlin, who at least partially call Nashville home these days, announced that their seventh full-length album, Lowborn, would be their last, and that they would embark on one final tour to celebrate their monumental 12 year run. That means this Wednesday, Nov. 5, when the group roll through Cannery Ballroom with Greek Fire, it…
