oney Locust – “Blue Rooms”
The first track off the forthcoming The Great Southern Brood. If you’re a fan of DeVotchKa, Calexico or other western inspired bands capable of swelling, emotional, anthemic songs – this one is for you.Â
Wayne Mosh – Crumblelation
Two new tracks from Jason Moore, aka Wayne Mosh. Looks like he’s starting to dive into some weirder vocal approaches but keeping things anchored in the rock world – it’s a nice combo.
Character – Live in Lexington
Remember Character? If not, go scour the used bins and find a copy of A Flashing of Knives and Green Water, you will not regret it. Or, check out this live video of the band playing a rather enjoyable set in Lexington. It takes a moment for the show to start but it’s great to see Eric Williams, Sam Smith, William Tyler, Ryan Norris, Scott Martin, Dave Paulson and Phil Pomeroy doing their thing.

Meadownoise – Louder Like a Microphone
As part of the ongoing “Single a Month” undertaking, Meadownoise recently released the January installment – “Louder Like a Microphone.” It continues in the dark vein that the previous two have taken and I, for one, completely approve. If this ends up being twelve tracks in this style it’s going to easily be some of the best of the year.
Circle K – First Six
I dunno if I’d call it a “side project” but Circle K involves at least one member of D. Watusi. So, take that as an endorsement of worth listening to.Â
2014
Another year, another refreshed headspace for the undertaking that is We Own This Town. There won’t be a Best Of 2013 podcast this year because I haven’t been on top of things enough to get that together.Â
That being said, I definitely plan to keep posting about new music endeavors from all sorts of outlets in Nashville but also want to expand what we talk about to just any creative endeavor. It’s not like we get enough traffic to not just do whatever want. So, I’m going to post about whatever.
Long story short, if there is anything you are working on that you feel the music community of Nashville would be interested in, let us know! We’re open to posts about well beyond music.
