ENU header

Here we go again.  Another East Nashville Underground is right around the corner, and we will be previewing everyone playing this weekend over the new few days to get you in the spirit.  There is no better way to get in the groove than with the 8 off 8th kick off party that the crew throws with ENU alumni on the Monday before each festival. Tonight includes performances from The Joy of Painting, H-Beam, The Static Trees, Vinyl Thief, Magnolia Sons, Waterfall Wash, Feedback Revival & Thee Japanese Schoolgirls.

The ENU 8 off 8th is happening tonight over at The High Watt, and, as always, it’s free! You can check out some embeds of those performing after the jump. Get out and see some live music tonight with your ENU family, and let’s get this exciting week started with a bang!  Oh, and if you haven’t bought your wristband for ENU this weekend, you better jump on that here before it sells out again.

T. Rust is the project of Taylor Rust and friends who began their musical journey in Murfreesboro in 2007. Joined by Mikey Lieberman (percussion) and Mike Kluge (Bass), T. Rust greets all generations by connecting classic melody and style with evolved progressions. Now living in Nashville, the vision of T. Rust manifests itself to accelerate global consciousness through egalitarianism, community, environmental activism and performance art.

T. Rust will release their new EP Dimes on May 10th, and they are performing an EP release party at The End on that same day. You can check out the EP here, and you can have a look-see at the new video for the track “House” after the jump. Rumor has it the song is about a haunted house at the center of the universe. Believe.

More Great Shows Tonight In Nashville 5/2/13

We’ve spent a lot of time telling you about some of the great upcoming shows that are happening tonight in Nashville already. We gave away tickets for Youth Lagoon and Majical Cloudz over at Mercy Lounge. Communion Nashville has another stellar lineup over at The Basement tonight. And, if you are lucky enough to be heading over to Cannery tonight for the Jim James show, you should probably just stop reading right here, because we know exactly how incredible that show is going to be.

Still reading? Great. Let’s run through the rest of the great shows going on around town tonight. We have some solid rock n’ roll, some fun synth pop tunes that will blow your socks off, and a side project for an artist with one of the most impressive resumes we’ve seen in a long time.
