Oooh the shows are really picking up this week, sweet Nashville. Plus, don’t forget, it’s Valentine’s Day this weekend for all my lovebirds out there. Going to a tite show with red, pink and white M&Ms in hand is a really good look so we better see y’all out there. Melt in your mouth not in your hand. Watching you, Josh G.

To kick off the week, we have another solid opportunity to support Candice Battletapes with Jenny Lewis at her benefit show. Be there. You’ll see a lot of Thelma and the Sleaze as they continue their criss-crossing journey on their month-long, Nashville-only (and aptly-named) Kandyland Tour with all sorts of your local faves. Sun Seeker has their tour departure show on Wednesday at new house show spot the Glass Menagerie, then we get a visit from Timmy’s Organism and VIDEO PLUS the homecoming of Bully right before the weekend. Packed!
