Love is a maze. When you meet someone new, it can lead quickly to a dead end. Or someone can take you along winding paths and down corridors you’ve never explored. Nashville pop artist 7Chariot explores this phenomenon in her debut single “Ricochet.” Drawing influences from a murders’ row of pop acts like Grimes,…

We’ve been following Aussie-bred, Nashville-based rocker Dan Young via his Lonely Benson project through a smattering of groovy, laid back singles, and we’re waiting patiently just like everyone else for his long awaited debut LP due out in January.

December’s just days away and with less than a month to go until Christmas, we’re finally getting swept into the holiday spirit, despite the unseasonably warm weather here in Nashville.

Nearly four years removed from States’…

We’ve been obsessing over local duo Sad Baxter for years now, who, with their grungy riffs, pop accessibility, and personal and melancholy themes craft typically sad, sarcastic songs which are delightfully juxtaposed with singalong worthy hooks, making them an essential rising act in Nashville’s flourishing underground rock scene. Their debut LP, Weirdly, arrived last year, and since then the group have only…

Aussie-bred, Nashville-based rocker Dan Young has been pursuing music through his project Lonely Benson for a while now, and caught our attention with a smattering of groovy, laid back singles over the past couple of years.

Aside from the surprise unearthing of an unreleased track earlier this year, we haven’t heard much from local rockers The Subnovas since 2014. That’ll change in a big way this winter, when the genre-bending post-rock group, whose conceptual and eclectic sound pulls from post-punk, art rock, psychedelic pop, and beyond, release their first ever full-length, Between the Light…
