We got the pleasure of checking out Cat Power’s set at 3rd & Lindsley last week as part of a solo tour around the country to support her most recent album, Sun, which made our list of top 10 albums of 2012. Undoubtably, this show was going to be one to remember. 3rd & Lindsley is such an intimate…

With the announcement of the Coachella lineup yesterday, we can start to better predict the Bonnaroo headliners. Radiohead filled in their tour schedule today after the Coachella announcement, and they still have an opening around Bonnaroo. But, I started thinking… if you headline one massive festival (Coachella), can you still headline another massive festival…

Based on our site stats, people like to see previews of Hatch Show Prints, so we’ll repost this little sneak peek that The Ryman tweeted a couple of days ago for (the very sold out) The Civil Wars show on Thursday January 12th. It’s pretty cool, but looks like it will be bitch to…

It looks like I wasn’t the only music blogger to check out Diamond Rugs debut show in Atlanta last week. Paste Magazine met with the band members for a memorable interview before the show. You can check that out over at Paste. You can also see McCauley’s face-drawing DIY video for “Christmas In A…
