The second annual Next Big Nashville (NBN) will showcase the best of the thriving Nashville music scene and artistic community on September 5-9. The five-day event will feature well over 130 bands including The Features, Jeremy Lister, Landon Pigg, Eef Barzelay, The Pink Spiders, Elizabeth Cook, Gabe Dixon Band, De Novo Dahl, Butterfly Boucher and many more. Cannery Ballroom, Mercy Lounge, 12th & Porter, Exit/In, The End, The Rutledge, Belcourt Theatre, The Basement, 3rd & Lindsley, Grimey’s New and Preloved Music, Bar23 and Layl’a Ultra Lounge are all on board to host showcases, VIP events, in-stores and after-parties. Proving the sentiment expressed by this year’s theme, “We’re All in This Thing Together” (taken from the song “Red Lights” by participating artist Trigger Code), NBN is truly a community effort. Local management companies such as Nettwerk Nashville, indie labels like Infinity Cat and locally based businesses like Griffin Technologies, are all pitching in to make this event as diverse and dynamic as the scene it spotlights. NBN kicks off Wednesday, September 5 at Belcourt Theatre with “Reel BIG Nashville." The program will feature locally produced indie documentary clips and live music by some of the film-featured bands. Following five days of live music, after-parties and other official events, NBN will conclude on Sunday, September 9 with a live broadcast on WRLT/Lightning 100 featuring new Nashville transplant and songwriting legend Freedy Johnston. Five-day wristbands are on sale now. To purchase or for more information visit www.nextbignashville.net or www.myspace.com/nextbignashville.
