Nashville Scene

Gwen Levey punches through the morass of her life on Not the Girl Next Door. This is a hard-driving country-rock EP that finds Levy taking control and reveling in it. The five songs chronicle her realizing that partying hard with people who don’t care about your feelings is not the way (“Toxic City”), and guides us straight through to loving forgiveness (“The Next Lifetime”) and embracing yourself (“Not the Girl Next Door”). The EP closes with “Barefoot and Pregnant,” a retro-country banger that mocks the repeal of Roe v. Wade. This arena-ready collection cements Levey as an artist to keep an eye on.

You may not know Patrick Damphier’s name, but there’s a good chance you’ve heard his production and sideman work with Mynabirds, Ponychase, New Man or Jessica Lea Mayfield, among others. You might also possibly have heard him playing his own songs under the name Field Days. But at the end of last year, he announced that he would retire the moniker and release his first LP under his own name. READ MORE…

Even if you’ve only dipped into the Nashville rock scene, chances are good you’ve seen Datenight, the often-busy fresh-faced trio featuring drummer Thomas Borelli, bassman Isaac Talbot and guitarist-singer Grayton Green. The Spin’s enjoyed them, whether it felt as though their sound leaned a little more toward hardcore or else toward something Stooges-y. After several years honing their chops — including a slot opening for Detroit legends Death — they’re finally set to release their debut full-length, titled Comin Atcha 100MPH, in the spring.

New York alt-country band Karen & the Sorrows play their genre exercises Americana style, which means they marry singer-songwriter words to the timeless music of Poco, Tom Petty and the Eagles. Led by singer-songwriter Karen Pittelman, the group performs the tunes on its new album The Narrow Place in a straightforward fashion that owes a debt to uninflected indie rock, so the music is often rather static.

“Can satire go too far?” is the wrong question. Wheeler Walker Jr. and Birdcloud don’t give a fuck what you think — and they don’t have to. You’ll probably never hear the word “fuck” as many times as you do talking to Wheeler Walker Jr. or Birdcloud.

And after another hundred, it becomes something like iceberg lettuce, devoid of any real value. That’s when the words around it emerge. When the two acts take the stage at Exit/In on Friday, there’s a whole lot of fuck to go around — but it’s what’s around the word that is so much more important. READ MORE…
