No Country in a Nutshell: The Weekly Recap | 9.9-9.15

As you might have noticed, last week we welcomed several new contributors into the mix. We’re very excited to have some new voices on board, and we can’t wait to bring you more content in the coming weeks. This fall is shaping up to be one of the best for live music we’ve ever seen, and we have a lot of exciting things planned to bring you the best possible news and coverage.

As you may also have noticed, we were offline a bit over the weekend due to technical difficulties. Feel free to follow our new Tumblr, where we’ll be syndicating some content in the future, and thanks for bearing with us- things are all back to normal today.
