  • Is Kreayshawn part of Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All?

    Ok, I set up No Country For New Nashville to be a Nashville-based independent music site that promotes bands that I am excited about coming through town and local acts that are working their way up the ranks.  But, sometimes, I just think something is catchy or whatever, and I throw up a post…

  • Band of Horses’ Tyler Ramsey’s Solo Work

    It’s a gray, rainy day here in Nashville, and I celebrated the college football kickoff a little too much yesterday.  So, it’s a perfect day to mellow out to some Tyler Ramsey. You probably already know Tyler as the guitarist for Band of Horses, but you may not have heard his solo work.  If…

  • Get to know: Pree

    I just stumbled across some great new pop tunes that I want you to know about.  It’s Feist/Regina Spektor/Fiona Apple-like feel good music that could easily end up in a commercial convincing you to buy the next generation of iPod.  So, that being said, let’s get to know Pree, before your mom tells you…

  • What are Jack White, Insane Clown Posse, JEFF The Brotherhood, and Mozart doing?

    Nashville Cream’s D. Patrick Rodgers is reporting that Jack White’s Third Man Records has a collaboration of the Insane Clown Posse, JEFF The Brotherhood, and ….. MOZART?  Jack certainly isn’t afraid to try new things (see Black Milk and Stephen Colbert and The Black Bells) down on South 7th Street, but I am pretty…

  • JEFF The Brotherhood has been busy…

    Trying to keep up with JEFF The Brotherhood is getting harder and harder.  Mostly gone are the days of finding the Nashville brothers jamming at a house party, or at some beyond tiny dive bar.  They just finished a tour with Pentagram (that you might have seen at Nashville’s Exit/In), they just played a…

  • Listen to Jamie XX’s Two Hour BBC Radio Set

    Jamie XX (the drummer and producer of the band XX) is becoming quite the celebrity with his solo DJ work.  The first track of his that I heard was the mesmerizing remix of Gil Scott Heron’s “New York Is Killing Me” earlier this year.  Well, over the weekend, Jamie XX took over BBC Radio…

  • Get to know: PS I Love You

    Wasn’t this the name of some romantic comedy film?  It was definitely the name of a catchy early pop song by The Beatles.  It is also included in the name of South Park’s (Rick Rubin produced & Isaac Hayes sung) classic, “Chocolate Salty Balls (P.S. I Love You)”.  None of this is necessarily conjuring…
