Wheelin' To Willie Part 3 - Nashville, TN

As cheesy as Nashville can be with the over produced and abundance of pseudo country, that is constantly being pushed out from here, pockets of greatness exist. One of those great elements can be attributed to Layla's. The music venue is more than just a bar or club on lower Broadway housing bands nightly, but its a refuge from all the slick looking bars that want to pump as much pop country into our over saturated ears as possible. Great venues such as this need to be talked about and constantly be gigged by the Americana and Real Country acts that play there as much as possible. Layla's is definitely the punkest venue on lower Broadway and one in which we proudly support.

The turnout last night was damn great and sing alongs were as common as the PBR being drunk by the case. If you are in Nashville tonite do yourself a favor and get out to Layla's from 8 to Midnight as JB Beverley and Jake Cox will be taking the stage once again along with a plethora of special guests. Also huge thanks to Kevin and Lisa for letting us crash with them in east Nashville, damn good people!
