Ok. I debated whether or not I was going to devote a post to Ray LaMontagne at the Ryman tonight. Not because I don’t love him – because I really do. His songs kill me. Just straight-up slay me. If I were held hostage and forced against my will to list my Top Five…
It’s no secret that every single night in Music City we have an infinite amount of live music at our disposal. Tonight especially, there are several great shows on my radar so instead of just picking one to focus on, I’m going to bring you a quick rundown on all of them. It’s a…
