The Postelles, The Maine, and Mayday Parade, Tonight at Rocketown
•
It’s always an odd feeling to go to a show and be considerably more excited about the opener than the headliner. Don’t get me wrong, I’m looking forward to all three of these bands. I’m confident that they’ll all be great. This tour is just a very strange pairing of distinctly different artists and, in this…

Check out the latest release from Best Friend
•
Do you remember us telling you about Best Friend last year? They’re that band of Nashvillians that are schooling it up in Knoxville right now. Their last couple of EPs were on heavy rotation around here for a while, and I even got the chance to check them out at the now defunct Muse. …

Paul Banks of Interpol, Tonight at Mercy Lounge
•
For me, Interpol has always been something of a band of diminishing returns. When they first exploded onto the post-punk revival scene with Turn on the Bright Lights, I heralded them as perhaps the most genuine, talented, and, when compared to peers like The Strokes, underrated new band to come out of that movement. Their followup, Antics, included…

Musicians Corner CD Release Party / Nashville Sunday Night | 3rd and Lindsley | 11.4.12
•
I love that I live in a city where we have initiatives like Nashville Sunday Night and Musician’s Corner and the marriage of these two entities is a holy union indeed. Lightning 100’s weekly live radio broadcast helped me to feel like a part of the music scene back when I wasn’t even old…

Family Affair: He’s My Brother She’s My Sister | The High Watt | 11.3.12
•
I was delighted when the offer to check out He’s My Brother She’s My Sister was tossed my way, and, truth be told, a little embarrassed. How had I not heard them before? I gotta’ step up my game. I’m a sucker for sibling acts (Secret Sisters, Tegan and Sara, The Breeders) even when they’re fiction (The White Stripes). Plus I do love…

This Weekend In Nashville, November 2-4
•
No witty intro here. I am no longer witty. I am witless. I am a slave to this computer. I don’t have anything intelligent to say. I want to just copy and paste a bunch of publicist blurbs in here with no music for you to listen to. I want this computer to crash. …

The Dream Of The 90s Is Alive In Nashville
•
New blood alert… check out this post from our newest contributor Jessika Malone. Lambchop’s making noise in a cool West Nashville venue (The Stone Fox). Fiona Apple (pre-TX drug bust) played a sultry, sold-out show at the Ryman. Music City’s getting national attention for a burgeoning indie rock scene (Huffington Post). Belmont students are…

Scary Halloween In Nashville… Music Edition
•
Who doesn’t have halloween plans? Let’s face it. It’s mid week, and you probably already had your costumed fun last weekend. Well, there is no reason to moth ball that cheap/slutty excuse for a Halloween costume just yet. It definitely beats sitting around the house answering the door and doling out tooth rotting hyperactivity…

Umbrella Tree Calls It Quits
•
I got a break up email yesterday from Nashville’s Umbrella Tree. After a year and half relationship full of new and exciting experiences, Umbrella Tree told me that they couldn’t do it anymore. While I am sure that I will go on just fine, I know already that I will miss them. There weren’t…
