Titus Andronicus w/ The So So Glos & Diarrhea Planet | TONIGHT @ The Stone Fox
•
I know, I know. It’s Monday. You were probably at awesome shows all weekend (and, if one of those was East Nashville Underground, you likely drank entirely too much Grolsch). The last thing you want to do is catch another concert tonight, right? Well, too bad, because this one is too good to pass…

No Country in a Nutshell: The Weekly Recap | 5.6-5.12
•
What a week, huh? If you didn’t manage to catch an awesome show in the past seven days, you’re definitely doing it wrong. I think most of the No Country crew are suffering from post-ENU fatigue, but we still managed to catch quite a few other fantastic shows as well. We also interviewed a…

Album Review: Hotpipes – Dust
•
In case anyone hasn’t figured it out yet, I listen to Lightning 100 a lot. In fact, I’d say that my dial stays tuned to 100.1 for 99% of the time, only turning when I don’t think I can stand hearing one more spin of “Stubborn Love” by The Lumineers. It should come as…

•
As Lightning 100’s Wells Adams prepared to hand over the 2013 Music City Mayhem crown to local family-band folk-rockers Lulu Mae, he stopped to give a special acknowledgement to runner-up Mercy Bell. “In all our years of doing this,” he mused, “we’ve never seen anyone hustle like Mercy and her crew.

[Ticket Giveaway] The Generationals with Brass Bed | The High Watt | May 10
•
It’s been almost two years since I started this little rag, and the band I’m about to talk about is one of the reasons that it ever started at all. As a transplant from a larger market, bands that pinged highly on Pitchfork (I’ll save my diatribe on that one for another time) would send…
