Garage-rocker Hanni El Khatib might be L.A.-based, but the bluesy singer/songwriter shirked West Coast-rock producers to record his sophomore album Head in the Dirt right here in Nashville.

Stereogum did a pretty cool project at Bonnaroo this year. They handed out Polaroids to some of the artists at this year’s festival, and then scanned the pictures that they took. You can check them out at the Stereogum website. Pretty sweet glimpse backstage with some of the biggest stars of this year’s festival. …

Is San Francisco rocker Hanni El Khatib a one-man Black Keys? Well, wait, he plays live with a drummer…. making him a two-piece… just like the Black Keys. Regardless, he has that hard driving, dive bar, whiskey drinking, shooting pool with your head nodding, kind of sound. I wish I could see this guy…
