Shining an admittedly small spotlight on our rich Charlottesville live music scene.
Overman: The Sidetracks Interview
It’s just so much fun to see one of our favorite artists at the peak of their powers making a run. Will has never sounded better. His full length record Stranger is crushing the reviews. And the sky is the limit.
Wreckfest Sunday.
There were pretty puddles at IX reflecting soft light — a pink and baby blue sky. The air was washed and ready for the day. The bands were ready. Wreckfest Sunday morning came down.
Wreckfest Saturday Afternoon.
If Saturday night at the first ever Wreckfest was a crescendo of Charlottesville sound and fury, this is how it was built. Saturday afternoon.
Wreckfest Saturday Nite.
2 days, 17 bands, 3 stages and an insane number of moving parts came together to make one f@cking great weekend of music.
Hurry in and watch the first cut!

Reasons to Wreck: Gia Ray.
One of our amazing Cville Wreckfest artists, Gia sat down with Old Hank for an interview at Durty Nelly’s. If you haven’t got your dang tickets yet, what the Sam Diddly are you waitin’ for?
The Virginia Day Party at AMERICANAFEST
Words can’t describe the magic of this day in Nashville and our love for these Virginia Artists. You’ll just have to watch. It’s long form so get a bevvy and popcorn.
Reasons to Wreck: Dan Randlemanson
Old Hank sat down with Dan and tried his level best to do a professional job with this interview that covers everything from Dan’s rise to prominence as a journalist, to his fixation with some sort of coming apocalypse, to his early years in the fashion business.
The Beautiful Ferocity of Holy River.
This duo is showing us how to make change. By getting out there and working, everyday. In important, DIY, messy, thankless, gratifying, PMA, apolitical kinda ways.
Reasons to Wreck: Lord Nelson.
Cville, If Lord Nelson were the only band playing Wreckfest on the weekend of September 20-21, you should buy tickets and plan accordingly. (Of course they aren’t the only band playing Wreckfest but we’re just making a point.)
Erynn McLeod is on a Tear.
Erynn’s story is a study in how what can look like overnight success is actually a (young) lifetime of hard work. Old Hank interviews and Bazz covers the show. Dig in.
Skorts, Pinkish and Jaquardini charge the Southern’s ions.
Dr. E logs his first CSC report on a lush night of sweet distortion at the Southern.
The I ❤️ Cville CSC Interview.
Believe it or not, somebody thought it would be a good idea to interview us. And not just anybody, Michael and Xavier Urpi, two really handsome, intelligent, successful, dialed-in Cville dudes. And not just anywhere, it was on the I ❤️ Cville Network.
Adam’s Plastic Pond at Fa5.
Bazz caught APP “throwing out shimmering, angular indie grooves” that make him forget about the week he just had. Doozy.
HBD Durty Nelly’s.
Monday was the old gal’s 47th and her haggard beauty was on full display.
See every live show in Cville in one place.
