Andrew Sovine has live music performance in his blood. He’s a Nashville-bred son of a songwriter and the grandson of Grand Ole Opry member Red Sovine. Lucky for us, he’s made Savannah his home for the last six years.

Whether or not it takes a music academic to recreate Steely Dan's complex pop compositions, that’s what you get with The Fine Colombians.

On a sad side note, this is the last month for the Lodge of Sorrows, and they’re going out with a bang in October. Stay tuned for more and try to catch them all. Humans tend to forget how good something is until it’s gone, and Lodge of Sorrows is a world of good.

Atlanta’s Fury in Few is a face-grabbing heavy riff rock and roll machine. One release after another confirms their superior ability to write compelling, multi-layered songs that build, progress and run off a strong hook.
