Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton, Alabama Shakes, More Nab Awards at 2018 Grammys

Heading into the 60th Annual Grammy Awards over the weekend, yet another large spread of local artists were up for nominations, even if Nashville was lacking on the rock side this year (which, as a whole, was underrepresented, at something of an uneven and under-watched broadcast).

Save, perhaps, for Bonanroo (which shares the same production team) there is no other regional festival we can say that, without a doubt, we will attend every year without fail, and can count on to be as well-curated, well-organized, and endlessly fun as Forecastle Fest. We’ve made the trip four years in a row now, falling…
