Los Colognes – “Working Together” single
The first single from East Nashville’s Los Colognes is a breezy little summer number. Hard not to enjoy it.

I love it when I run across weird Euro-pop weirdness like this. Nashville diversity runs a wider gamut than people will ever give it credit for.

Dirty Water: A Boston Fundraiser
Tonight at Mercy Lounge will be a little event called Dirty Water : A Benefit for the Victims of the Boston Bombing. This gathering, put on by everyone’s favorite Boston ex-pat Sean Maloney, will not only raise funds for victims of the bombing but it will also provide you with a healthy dose of quality entertainment.Look at this!
Apollo Up! performs the songs of Mission to Burma
Larissa Maestro & The Melrose Place Band perform the songs of Letters to Cleo
Brett (Quichenight Rosenberg performs the songs of Tom Lehrer
Drug Buddiez perform the songs of The Lemonheads
There’s also a silent auction, stand-up comedy and ( I assume ) drink specials. A good cause with a great lineup of entertainment.. we should all make the effort to attend.
James Wallace and The Naked Light – “To The River”
It’s been a long time coming but the James Wallace and The Naked Light album, Some Strange News From Another Star, has finally made its way to vinyl. You can get it here. To celebrate the release, the band released a rather brilliant video for To The River – it’s simple but it’s captivating.
Hotpipes – “Magic Is Everywhere”
I’m biased but this new Hotpipes album, Dust, is beyond good. The newly released video for “Magic Is Everywhere” is a testament to its goodness. I’ve watched it so many times and it’s every bit as engaging as it was the first time.
Playing this Saturday, May 11th, at Mercy Lounge for their record release show. It’s $10 and you get a copy of the LP.

Matt Mahaffey: Nice Guys Don’t Finish Last, Nice Guys Finish Happy
Check out Matt Mahaffey’s (Self) combo performance + talk at the 2013 TEDxNashville conference, “Nice Guys Don’t Finish Last, Nice Guys Finish Happy.” In it, he speaks to his experience dealing with major record labels, producing big radio friendly bands and creating sounds for ad agencies – all of which, apparently, required a great deal of compromise. It’s great to see him speak with such honesty and authenticity on the subject.. now I just want to hear all the nitty gritty details.
