THE RUNDOWN – 12.23.2013 – 12.29.2013
I guess it shouldn’t come as a surprise that things are a little lacking in the show department this week, but it’s alright to take a break from that sometimes. Enjoy your Christmas parties with your friends and family who you don’t get to see as often as you’d like, everyone. Rock n roll will…
LEAD ME DEAR MASTER
Everyone knows there’s more to Nashville than country music, but one of the most overlooked chapters in our town’s history is its contribution to black R&B, soul, and [most pertinent to this post] gospel.

Not bad, people. Not…

GNAR CALLS
We love Gnarwhal, but Chappy and Tyler are some sneaky dudes. Prime example: they totally released a split 7-inch behind our backs last month, and we’re like, their biggest fans. From what we can tell the single features two songs from Gnarwhal and one from local Floydian math rockers The Prophet Nathan. We haven’t had a…
THE RUNDOWN – 12.9.2013 – 12.15.2013
Thing are looking up this week. The weather is wickedly cold, but at least we have shows. Gnarwhal, Turbo Fruits, Watcher, and Sunseeker. Seems like all of our favorites are making appearances, so no excuses. It’s time to get outta the house. See ya on the scene, dear reader. Monday, December 9 :: Guerilla Toss ::::…
