Video Playlist: The New Nashville
Though many call it "The Country Music Capital Of The World," Nashville has a whole lot more to offer than 10-gallon hats and Ford pick-ups. Not that there's anything wrong with Ford...
As evidenced by this week's MTV Featured Artist, Kings Of Leon, a Nashville band can wear pearl snaps down the fronts of their shirts and bump the Grand Ole Opry in their F-150s and still rock the Levi's off of any big-city rock radio station.
This video playlist is a big-up to bands like Raconteurs, Paramore and Be Your Own Pet, who embrace Nashville's musical heritage without letting it define them. Watch a set of new videos from the best of the new Nashville scene, and see if you can smell the country on 'em!
