Heartbeater has made a pretty decent impact in their short time around the Nashville area but are on the cusp of the real deal litmus test; releasing an enjoyable full-length album. The problem is, they need some money in order to make it happen (not an uncommon problem). So, they are turning to you – established fans, potential future fans, amateur philanthropists and just generally good natured folks to help them raise the money to record and release their first full-length record, Slow Waves. Their running the whole effort through a Kickstarter campaign and have even included a little video to introduce you to their cause.

Keep in mind that donating doesn’t just give you some warm feeling about helping out a local band – you’ll also receive a copy of the record along with some other great bonus items depending on the level you contribute. Go read more and think about opening up your wallet for a worthwhile local act.

Tonight your plans are taken care of. You will be headed to Mercy Lounge for a night of free music from a myriad of local talent that you may or may not have heard of; depending on how closely you pay attention to our podcasts. We Own This Town has put together the following lineup for tonight’s Mercy Lounge 8 Off 8th:

Roy Ira
The Garden Leo
Goldroom
Cobra Cheetah Tiger Viper
The Kingston Springs
Downtown Handshake

There’s no reason to go to anything else tonight because this is where the goods are. See you there promptly at 9!
