April, 2008 Notes
Spring is here. Thank God, eh? Here are a few thoughts about the current Nashville music scene.
The Jane Shermans have released their debut full length CD — get it.
Altered Statesman has released their debut full-length — get it.
Mike Farris has a Sunday night residency at The Station Inn this month — he's amazing, go see him and get Salvation in Lights if you haven't already.
There's an under-appreciated artist in Nashville who calls herself Edie -- check her out.
From The Basement to The Opry — Emily West will be making her Grand Ol Opry debut this month. Her debut Capitol Records ep is getting serious spins on country radio and CMT.
Nashville State of Mind screening and a documentary on Mark Olson (The Jayhawks) will be shown at The Nashville Film Fest later in April.
After listening to Sixpence None the Richer on the radio, it's clear that Leigh Nash should consider a vocal coach — Nash has some major-league pitchy vocals. I caught an 8 off 8th performance a couple months back where Nash was creating a trainwreck onstage. Thought maybe it was just a bad night, but the 3rd & Lindsley reunion show confirmed that perhaps a little woodsheddin' is a good idea.
See you at the shows! —Vincent Wynne, Editor
