Bonnaroo Band of the Day: Four Tet
•
Bonnaroo Artist | Four Tet Bonnaroo History | Newbie Stage & Time: | The Other Tent | Saturday | 4PM Though Four Tet is technically classified as an electronica or EDM artist, that narrow description just doesn’t do him justice. The British producer/DJ, whose real name is Kieran Hebden, has been around longer, and shaped a sound much broader…

East Nashville Underground Spring 2013 Lineup Announcement
•
Are you psyched for the next installment of East Nashville Underground? We’re psyched for the next installment of East Nashville Underground! After that amazing winter session, I wasn’t sure how ENU could top it- but they did, yet again! If last night’s announcement party at The Stone Fox is any indication, this session is likely to sell out…

Bonnaroo Band of the Day: Calexico (with Special Guests)
•
Bonnaroo Artist | Calexico with Special Guests Bonnaroo History | 2004, 2010 Stage & Time: | This Tent | Friday | 1:45PM Calexico likes to borrow names. The band itself is named after a small California town on the border of Mexico. Fitting, since their style is a seamless blend of Americana, country, and Latin music. Calexico’s latest…

TWiN | This Weekend In Nashville | 4/5 – 4/7
•
It has been one of those weeks that you want to break up with because of its caustic personality. We can’t believe it is already Friday. No one is complaining, of course, but it felt like the weekend would never arrive, and now you can’t believe it is already here. Well, buckle in kids,…

El Ten Eleven or Turqoise Jeep Tonight: A Hard Decision
•
Tonight was a musical conflict for me. I was initially torn like Natalie Imbruglia between El Ten Eleven at Exit/In or Turquoise Jeep Records at Mercy Lounge, both tonight. But I made the decision to go see El Ten Eleven. I’ve been drooling over their YouTube videos and I’m finally glad that they’re stopping…

Bonnaroo Band of the Day: Japandroids
•
Bonnaroo Artist | Japandroids Bonnaroo History | 2010 Stage & Time: | This Tent | Thursday | 10PM Japandroids are a bit of an accident. The Canadian garage/noise rock duo had effectively called it quits before their debut album, Post-Nothing, had even seen its proper release. After the record not only saw a wide release, but also was critically…

Get Hardcore at The Owl Farm Tonight with Shai Hulud!
•
Save for guitarist/founding member Matt Fox and, for most of their existence, bassist (and sometimes guitarist and vocalist) Matt Fletcher, Shai Hulud‘s members have always been in a state of flux. Even now, the modern hardcore legends don’t even officially have a lead singer; they’re currently touring with a fill-in. For most bands, this would be a…

Anna Haas @ The Basement 3.29.13
•
Watch out Nashville, Anna Haas is not to be underestimated. I had the good fortune to spend Good Friday night catching her early set at The Basement and it was good, indeed. Anna, like many artists living in the internet age with instant access to a wide-range of diverse influences and crowd-funded enterprises (Kickstarter…

Bonnaroo Band of the Day: Death Grips
•
Bonnaroo Artist | Death Grips Bonnaroo History | Newbie Stage & Time: | The Other Tent | Saturday | 2:15PM To attempt to accurately describe Death Grips would almost certainly do the California band a disservice. Alternative/experimental rap? Not really. Though frontman Stefan Burnett goes by the pseudonym MC Ride, to call his delivery or aim rap would be to…
