Sherbert – “Walk Away” (Single)
You may have already heard this via The Cream already but if not, here’s your chance to hear some great girl-vs-boy melancholy pop music.

Roman Candle – Debris preview
Wow, this new Roman Candle stuff is a surprising turn. Loving this new direction. You can pre-order it here and hear the whole thing immediately. Good deal!
Netherfriends – Murfreesboro, TN
It’s true that Netherfriends is not from the surrounding Nashville area but it’s always good to see the State’s best little community get its due. Listen to “Murfreesboro, TN.”
NORM
is best known for his damn-near-perfect pop-rock undertakings but he also dabbles in the blips and bloops. Loving this dancey piece of work “Sega Genesis” that I stumbled on via his Soundcloud. More like this pls!
You know that phrase “Ignorance Is Bliss”? I’m embracing it fully when listening to the offerings of Truth Bubble
. I don’t know the backstory here but this mashup of JUSTICE, Big Freedia and a host of others is mesmerizing. Absolutely love that this spawned from the Nashville area.

Tristen – C A V E S Full album preview stream over at Spin.com. Official release is October 15th.. right around the corner.
Birdcloud – Ice Balls
I love that this video seems to document the moment when the band loses their shit completely. Lets hope they start performing in full zombie outfits and dripping blood from this point forward. Absurdity done right. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Tue Mommies – Better Off This Way
What better way to showcase your melancholy pop greatness than with vintage footage showing the pains of motherhood and responsibility. There’s also an R-Rated video for the same song that features a lot less storyline and a lot more  vintage boobies. Pick your poison. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
The Ettes – “You Were There”
directed by Jo McCaughey Holy shit this new video from The Ettes is awesome. Equal parts sexy and sinister. The song is taken from Wicked Will and a just-released 7" on Muddy Roots Records, available here. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

Photographer Bradley Spitzer relaunched his portfolio recently and it features some real gems with Natalie Prass and Kurt Wagner.. go check it out.
Maybe you’ve heard it before but it’s worth revisiting. “The Salesman” is the first preview track from Jasmin Kaset
’s forthcoming record, Quiet Machine. Personally, I put it on repeat all damn day.
Private Lives
 may be a new band in town but their former bands include the likes of Mom & Dad, The Turtle Bangs, Daykids and loads more. In other words, they’re no strangers to the rock. Currently they are slowly trickling out new tracks from their debut release and, so far, I’m loving what I’m hearing.
