Indie Music Spotlight by Middle Tennessee Music

It’s been a long time since I’ve compiled one of these Indie Music Spotlight lists. You know…life, family, substitute teaching chaos, squeezing music into all that; out here living the dream.

While I’ve been caught up with other things, the submissions keep piling up. No better way to share more of these talented artists than through a top picks feature.

You can use the list below to skip around or simply click Next to view the list in order. You can also click “View Full Post” to see the entire list on one page.

Be sure to stream, follow and share your favorites.

Dave Patten – Miss Liquor

One more time and you’ll quit her, right? That toxic relationship which has brought so many fun times, but you know it’s better to end it and move forward. Dave Patten delivers a blues and jazz styled tale of being caught up in that whirlwind where you keep trying to leave, but are pulled back into the beautiful mess. Wait, was this an ode to alcohol or a much deeper look at a twisted love, you listen and decide.
