In this first episode, we start things off by taking a look at what's been going on in Gainesville. From 3rd Stone's new album to Zack Borer's “gig with Google,” we've got you covered.
Then, we take a look a the week ahead in Gainesville. We fill you in on the hottest venues to check out this weekend. Shows featuring Gainesville stars – like the Grabass Charlestons and BOMBTRACK – will abound. And don't forget the names coming in from out of town, whether they hail from Orlando or New York.
Finally, we spend some time with local artist Aullie Bigby. We struggle attempting to define his genre, which is known to incorporate indistinct elements of acoustica, 90's nostalgia, folk, rap, soul, and blues. After spilling about his upcoming band plans, he gives us an exclusive live medley as a tribute to Gainesville.
