Don’t Miss Indie Rockers Frank Smith | Tonight @ The 5 Spot!
•
Let’s get one thing out of the way first: Frank Smith is a band, not a guy. Hailing from Austin by way of Boston, they’re also a band you need to know. They’ve actually got a decade of releases under their belt, but, if you’ve slept on them this long, there’s never been a better…

In case you missed anything, here’s a recap of everything we covered on the site: NEWS: Tyler, the Creator announced the release date for his new album and dropped a…

•
Here we go again. It’s another weekend in Nashville, and your hard working asses need to get moving to celebrate. If you are a regular follower of this rag, you’d find it hard to think we would even know that anything other than East Nashville Underground is going on over at The East Room this…

Black Francis Wants To Be Your Valentine Tonight at Mercy Lounge
•
Has their been a more influential band than The Pixies? I would find it hard to argue against that, and I don’t think I stand alone in that sentiment. When The Pixies called it quits (read took a hiatus) in 1993, front man Frank Black (born with the far more regal name Charles Michael Kittridge…

Here’s our pic of the clue: And the riddle…

Torres Is Playing At Grimeys For Free today at 6pm
•
Those of you not at The Basement on Friday night (that includes us) have probably read all about local songstress Mackenzie Scott (d.b.a. Torres) over at Nashville Cream. While I was blissfully ear to ear smiling at The Belcourt Theater watching Dave Grohl (and dozens of other megastars) make unbelievable sounds on a particular…
