GIVE IT A SPIN
Guys… we know year-end lists are totally bogus and lame and wrong and biased and pretty pointless. I mean, what does it really matter what our favorite record of the year was, ya know? Pretty much 10 times out of 10 we’ll end up finding a record the year after it came out and like…
IMPOSSIBLE TRUTHS
It’s old news at this point for most Nashvillians – but does it matter? William Tyler is one of if not our absolute favorite local band. We believe that Behold The Spirit is one of the great Tennessee albums and since we first heard it we’ve only been anxiously awaiting a follow-up. Lucky for us it’s…
STEAL MY MIND
Self-proclaimed “trash poet” John Wesley Coleman III incorporates indie rock slack with witty storytelling in his music. Hailing from Irving, Texas and living much like a drifter in East Austin, Coleman started engaging himself in a variety of creative activities in the mid-2000s: performing with psychedelic five-piece Golden Boys, doing standup comedy, painting, writing books and movie…
PARTY COMING SOON
It’s been a couple months since our 3rd Birthday party where we celebrated the release of a new single and some limited edition copies of the D. Watusi debut album Dark Party – but it looks like we’ll have actual copies available very soon. That’s the official artwork for the album up there. It’s taken…
EAGLE’S LANDING
For local show-goers – those are probably some pretty familiar faces up there. And for local flyer-readers – Promised Land is a name you’ve probably seen a lot of lately. For good reason though. The trio [sometimes 4piece] includes the two Scala brothers who are also in Denney & The Jets and one brother who…
A CROWN FOR CRONIN
Last year around this time we were talking about some of our favorite records to be released in the 2011 year and we couldn’t help but talk a lot about Mikal Cronin’s debut offering on Trouble In Mind Records. We think that’s pretty understandable though – that record’s sick. Aside from a few tours and…
KNOW SOME NOVAK
Well, last year we were told to expect the follow-up to Jeffrey Novak’s solo album After The Ballroom sometime in the 2012. Doesn’t really look like that’s going to happen at this point, but we’ve heard Baron In The Trees and can vouch for how good it is and you’ll definitely want to grab it…
VICEROY DEMARCO
In mid-October Captured Tracks released Mac DeMarco’s debut full length, 2. We had heard his Rock & Roll Night Club EP that also came from Captured Tracks just a few months earlier and were pretty intrigued but thought he might be taking things too hokey [if you’ve seen any of the videos from tracks off…
