The Weekendist: Go Go Go Edition
There’s always a weekend in April that goes down as one of the busiest in Nashville’s history (at least where your Nashvillest editors are concerned), and that weekend is about to begin. Rites of Spring, the Nashville Film Festival, Record Store Day… Throw in a hockey playoff or two and you’ve got yourself a recipe [...]
Keep Your Music Local At Record Store Day 2011
The past year has been a rollercoaster for record stores in Nashville. The Great Escape closed their midtown location after 33 years. We lost (and then got back!) The Groove. Grimey’s has been shining in the national spotlight this year, reeling in one high-profile instore performance after another and chatting it up with NPR. And Jack White is [...]
Celebrate Independent Record Stores At Record Store Day This Saturday

Vandy’s Rites Of Spring: T.I., Nickel Creek, and Flaming Lips, Oh My!
With the sudden explosion of events and festivals this weekend, it seems that Nashville is finally stepping out of hibernation after a really long, really gross winter. And if the Nashville Film Festival, Earth Day, Grimey’s Record Store Day, Cherry Blossom Festival (yes, we have one of those), Music City Walk of Fame inductions, and [...]
Saturday: Grimey’s Record Store Day
As Record Store Day draws near, we find ourselves shuffling our weekend schedule so much that it looks like we’ll be making three separate trips to Grimey’s for the festivities on Saturday. And although there’s no promises of a Bat Poet appearance (he showed up last year), we’re still looking forward to it. Grimey’s has [...]
