Odds & Ends
A few various news items worth noting (edited for brevity and to sidestep tl:dr).
- Next Big Nashville band line announced – see it here.
- David Byrne is coming to the Ryman on Sept. 22nd – get tickets.
- NashvilleRock.net starts editorial Rage Against The Scene in which they go through each new issue of the Scene and point out the flaws.
- Be Your Own Pet announced their breakup. Safely assuming we’ll hear more from all band members in future Infinity Cat projects.
- Festival have put together a great video for their song “Valentine.” They’re also playing at The Basement this Sunday, the 10th (and at Grimeys on the 12th).
- The details on that All We Seabees album, Mkultra, have been announced. Be sure to snag the mp3 for “Alt Country.”

We Own This Town #13
Download MP3 | Download M4A
Nashville rock is never in short order but it feels like lately there has been a surplus of goodness that should be appreciated. This edition of We Own This Town attempts to highlight some of the more recent releases from some of Nashville’s finest. Granted, the How I Became the Bomb track has been around for awhile but it is included here for historical purposes (and it made a good segue).
If the Meemaw track “Blue in the Backlight” doesn’t make your summer a little better you should give up on trying to enjoy music ever again. Though I personally think all of the tracks on this edition are worth innumerable relistenings.
