Photos and Review by Codi Glancy Remember last year when The Whiskey Gentry put out “Please Make Welcome?” If not, let me refresh your memory, they put out the album, they played two sold out nights at Smith’s Olde Bar, and they kicked ass! This special event was called “Twang-On” and if you were lucky […]

As a performer, sought-after singer-songwriter and executive at the successful Nashville based record label and publishing company, Better Angels Music, Gary Ray is a music biz triple-threat. He is no stranger to the Atlanta scene, and is playing Peachtree Tavern, JUly 13th. He joined us for our 5GB series before the show. What’s the first […]
The ever-evolving and inventive musical creations of Atlanta’s Jungol have been purposefully kept from the usual touring environment so far this year. Besides their SXSW showcases, a couple local shows and a Dark Room set opening for POLICA, Jungol’s efforts have remained focused off the stage. The guys have been spending their time working hard […]

If you haven’t then get your booties over to Smith’s Olde Bar to catch their 3-day “Twang-On 2!” They are recording these folks, so put on your best singing voice. –Everett James began his […]
Review by Ellen Eldridge Generally speaking, I don’t choose to spend my time listening to others bitch about religious freedom or political injustice. I delete those friends on Facebook who spread horrible pictures of abused animals and children, not because I am insensitive but because that’s the last thing I need upsetting me during […]

By Jhoni Jackson If Jerry Lee Lewis were on the up-and-up today, he’d have an intimidating rival in the Montreal-made one-man-show known as Bloodshot Bill. That’s because Bill’s boogie woogie bedrock is just as sturdy—but, unlike Lewis, Bill does it alone. It’s a one-man-show of grit and sweat and punk-bred fury to the beat of […]
Seriously? I think the heavens are upset…what is with all these storms? I am proud of our city though for still getting out and supporting the music community. Here are some fun events for tonight. -If you think you can brave the chance of rain again, then head over to Chastain Amp. where jazz singer/pianist, […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Zach Deputy’s solo-acoustic set at Eddie’s Attic was the perfect way to start my Friday evening. The show was intimate, reverent, and strangely hilarious. Instead of live entertainment at a venue, it seemed more like Zach was a close friend who whipped out his guitar for an impromptu performance […]
I am proud to say that I have known The Whiskey Gentry’s lead singer, Lauren Staley (Morrow!) since we were just wee babes obsessed with England. After over more than a decade I have watched as this songbird played her first mini-gig to a bunch of drunken Germans, then drunken English, and now of course […]

Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Anyone who tries to spread the word about Lazer/Wulf always runs into the same problem: Explaining their sound. People throw around genre catchwords such as metal, jazz fusion, thrash, sludge, mathcore, aggressive, progressive, symphonic, melodic, evil-funk, avant-metal… the list goes on. Personally, I prefer to use the phrase “groove […]
