We got the pleasure of checking out Cat Power’s set at 3rd & Lindsley last week as part of a solo tour around the country to support her most recent album, Sun, which made our list of top 10 albums of 2012. Undoubtably, this show was going to be one to remember. 3rd & Lindsley is such an intimate…

Just two weeks after landing a number one debut with their latest (and downright amazing) release, Reflektor, Grammy Award-winning indie rockers Arcade Fire have announced their first proper North American tour since 2011. After their recent listening party at Grimey’s, a Nashville date seemed like a sure-thing, and, with this new announcement, our suspicions were confirmed. The…

One of the most prolific, hardworking, and talented performers in the scene today, Devine is…

Northern Irish indie-rock trio Two Door Cinema Club perform at Marathon Music Works tonight with St. Lucia and Bad Veins. Three years after their platinum debut, Tourist History, TDCC followed up with Beacon in early September, 11 songs of indie-rock prowess (though specifying a band as indie rock is altogether convoluted). Maybe you missed…

Rapper Hoodie Allen is set to perform tonight at Cannery Ballroom, and, as is occasionally the case, this show is open to fans of all ages. The buzzed about performer is currently in the midst of his “Party With Your Friends” tour, and tickets for this evening are still available right here. After the jump, find out more about the…

This sounds almost like something our Boom Bap friends would bring you over at The 5 Spot on a Monday night. We’ve been talking a lot about party bands lately, and there may not be a more fun, rump shaking, good time than Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe. But, this soul spectacular featuring the songs…
