Live Music

The Americana Music Association has announced its initial lineup of artists confirmed to perform at the upcoming 2009 Americana Music Festival (with additional artists still pending).

Festival showcases will be held Wednesday September 16th-Saturday September 19th at five downtown Nashville venues including: The Mercy Lounge, The Cannery Ballroom, 3rd & Lindsley, The Station Inn and The Basement.

The extraordinary ongoing chapters of a five-decade career illustrate the unending public demand for the music of American rock-and-roll heroes Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, who will play the Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s Andrew Jackson Hall, September 27, 2009. Tickets go on sale to the public on Sunday, August 16, at 10:00 a.m.

The singular body of work of the classic vocal group The Four Seasons; the compelling power of their life stories; and the timeless cultural presence of lead singer Frankie Valli’s iconic voice are all continuing to drive ticket sales the world over, despite the deepening economic recession. Responding to this popular demand, Valli and The Four Seasons have extended their national solo tour schedule well into 2010.

In case you missed their killer set last night at The End, Nashville music lovers will get one more chance tonigh to check out The Flying Eyes' undulating, pulsating psychedelic rock with a moody low-fi edge.

The Flying Eyes will be playing this time at Springwater off of West End Avenue near Centennial Park.

The Flying Eyes are always pushing forward to the borders of their creativity. The result is a spirited musical odyssey with rich characters, moods and places all embedded in their music.

San Francisco’s Indian summer is around the corner and with it brings the 3rd Annual Treasure Island Music Festival, the West Coast’s most anticipated boutique music festival. Set against panoramic views of the city by the bay, Treasure Island Music Festival will stick true to form in offering an electronic and dance centric lineup on Saturday, October 17th and an indie rock lineup on Sunday, October 18th.
