Nashville – The Richmond, VA-based band Avers stopped by the Stone Fox this past Friday night, and it just so happened to be a very damp, dreary Friday the 13th. However, despite the rain and the mud and the lingering superstition, fans of the psychedelic pop group flocked to the show in order to catch
Nashville – The End is an intimate, favorite venue amongst the city’s natives. Attracting an array of different acts from young locals just starting out, to more seasoned musicians simply stopping by Nashville, The End is a preferred place to hear live music in Music City. However, it’s small, it’s gritty, and it’s dark. It’s
Nashville – Franklin, Tennessee natives Colony House delivered a hearty homecoming performance to local audiences this past Friday night at Marathon Music Works. The band returned to the south as a part of their tour alongside the South African alternative band Kongos and the indie pop group Sir Sly. The venue, housed in the sprawling
Nashville – Delightful, danceable, and uniquely rhythmic, O Shudder (via Memphis Industries), the newest LP just out from UK-based band Dutch Uncles, is an energetic collection of songs that ends all too soon.

From lead vocalist Monica Martin’s subversive charm, to the band’s flawless self-titled debut LP—which Best New Bands called “Phenomenal”—that dropped last June, PHOX has a good
Nashville – There’s nothing that solo act Kawehi can’t accomplish as long as she’s armed with a sampler, a guitar, a keyboard, and her voice. Though her setup is humble—and dwarfed on a large stage—the Hawaiian-born artist is able to pull a formidable sound from less than ten square feet of space. Proving that the
Nashville – It’s difficult to pin down Breakfast In Fur, a four-piece outfit from New Paltz, NY. To put it simply, the group is soft-spoken but powerful, and their newest album, Flyaway Garden (via Bar/None), is certainly no exception. As ethereal as the title suggests, their full-length debut is a dreamy escape that combines whimsy
Nashville – New York-based artist Sarah Lipstate, who records her instrumental arrangements under the title Noveller, has completed yet another impressive array of her characteristic eerie compositions. Fantastic Planet (via Fire Records) follows 2011’s Glacial Glow, which garnered a slew of favorable reviews. Nearly four years later, Lipstate has managed to maintain that same deft
Nashville – With their latest self-titled release (via Burger Records), Cotillon once again shines with an ethereal follow up to their breezy 2013 White Roses EP. Led by the visionary singer-songwriter Jordan Corso, and known for their warm, floral sound that evokes the glory days of California surf pop, it seems that the band is
