Saturday Sounds: Old Crow Medicine Show (with Margo Price)

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 23, 2016

Last weekend Old Crow Medicine Show stopped in Knoxville to play two shows at the Tennessee Theatre. Saturday night’s show sold out while Sunday’s must have come close. Fans who attended the shows witnessed vintage Old...

The Knoxville Gay Men’s Chorus: A Musical Jewel for the City

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 22, 2016

As it turns out, most major cities – including those in the south – have gay men’s choruses. Atlanta has one, Nashville has a huge mixed chorus as does Charlotte, while Birmingham has two – they...

Scruffy City Film and Music Festival Begins Next Week

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 18, 2016

It’s easy for the festivals, as they come and go, to become a blur. We’ve already had Rhythm n Blooms, Big Ears and Earthfest. Rossini is this weekend and we haven’t even gotten to the heart...

Hip Hop For Hunger and Much More Highlights Another Busy Weekend

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 15, 2016

It feels like a slow down after two consecutive weekends (starting on Thursday each time) of music festivals. Surely we can take it easy until Rossini hits next weekend, right? Well, you can take it easy...

2016 Dogwood Arts Chalk Walk

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 14, 2016

As has become my custom, I struggled out of bed around 8:00 AM last Sunday morning to scurry to Market Square to see the chalk drawings before weather and foot-traffic obliterate them. It’s really impossible to...

Rhythm n Blooms 2016, Day 3

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 12, 2016

So, the excitement builds in anticipation of some of the best artists of the festival – but. But by the last day I’m exhausted. I’ve been up until 2:00 AM each of the first two days...

Rhythm n Blooms 2016, Day Two

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 12, 2016

The beginning of day two of a three day festival is a sweet spot of sorts: Day one was fun, building expectations for day two and exhaustion won’t set in until late in the day. It’s...

Rhythm n Blooms Kick-off and Day One

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 11, 2016

I realize that the sensible journalistic move here would be to do one article re-capping the Rhythm n Blooms Festival: Sum it up, mention a highlight or two, throw in half a dozen photographs and move...

What I Hope to See at Rhythm n Blooms 2016

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 8, 2016

As with so many festivals, each participant’s musical selections set them on a personal journey unlikely to be replicated by any other attending fan. We each have different preferences and bring different backgrounds to the shows....

Big Ears 2016, A Final Look: Inuksuit at Ijams and People on the Street

Knoxville Urban Guy·April 4, 2016

Throughout the festival, I was struck with how many people it must take to decide who to invite, to contact and negotiate with each artist, to find and reserve venues and to make a schedule, to...
