I don’t even know where to start this week’s posting. The tornadoes that leveled beloved neighborhoods in Nashville have spawned an army of love to clean up and aid in every way they can. Tennessee is indeed the Volunteer State. We have much to do, and it will take months. Obviously it will never be the same for those that lost loved ones, and our hearts go out to everyone that has been impacted. And then they cancelled SXSW due to fears about Covid19. What an incredible loss for another city we love, Austin, TX. And today we heard that Tin Pan South has been postponed in Nashville, what with both Corona Virus worries and tornado clean up.
Some music to take our minds off of things, perhaps? Today’s video is one of my favorite tunes from Memphis’ Liz Brasher. Coming from a deeply religious family, she channels that into her rock and roll. I think keeping the faith is particularly appropriate right now. “Blood of the Lamb” can be found on Liz’ 2019 Painted Image album. Here is the haunting Music Fog solo version, filmed during a private recording session in Nashville last year.
