NBN Presents: SoundLand 2011

Posted Tue June 7, 2011

Looks like Next Big Nashville has taken the next step in their evolution of moving away from being “Nashville” centric and being more of an event organizer. They just announced SoundLand 2011 – a four-day indoor/outdoor event taking place in late September. This is, obviously, Next Big Nashville that we’ve all come to enjoy but in a new form. The FAQ page states that the artist submission process is different this year (read: hand picked, not submitted) and the venue list looks a bit more condensed than it has in years past. Personally, I think it’s quite a wise idea to drop any reference to Nashville in the event title as it limits / confuses the kinds of booking that take place.

Long story short, there aren’t a ton of details yet. No bookings have been announced but they are offering an “Earlybird” ticket sale for just $35 for the entire four days. Not too shabby!

Follow them on Twitter and Facebook for the latest announcements.

Volume 45

I’ll be honest; I know next to nothing about the hip-hop scene in Nashville. So, when it struck me that it would be interesting to compile a podcast of some of the more forward thinking acts coming out of our area I really had no idea where to start. Fortunately, I knew Sean L. Maloney would. I hit him up one night with the request to put together a half hour of interesting songs and he turned it around in a days time. The end result is a blend of traditional hip-hop, soul, some R&B, beats and a good deal of great.

So, without further ado – here’s the 45th volume of the podcast. Curated by Sean L. Maloney and consisting entirely of the finest in Nashville based hip-hop. As someone coming from a place of total ignorance on the offerings of hip-hop from our town I think I can safely say that there’s no way you won’t be entirely engaged by this.
