Ok, millennials, this may be hard to process, but January marked the 20th anniversary of Dashboard Confessional’s emo masterpiece “Screaming Infidelities.” I know, I know. Where does the time go? But stifle those angsty flashbacks because there’s good news. Late last month the band released their ninth album, All the Truth That I Can Tell, once again mixing the vulnerability and punk spirit that helped define a whole generation of rock, and it finds founder Chris Carrabba in Y2K-era form. For many fans, the new tunes feel like a callback to Dashboard’s early days, with Carrabba seemingly writing of the truth he’s found after surviving a traumatic time: The Franklin-based frontman and songwriter endured a harrowing motorcycle wreck in 2020, one that severed muscles in his arms and shoulders and…

QUESTION: Why is heart health an issue for the women of Middle Tennessee? ANSWER: Heart disease is the number one health threat to women. One in three women will die of heart disease or stroke—more than all cancers combined. Women are more impacted by heart disease and less likely to know they are at increased risk. Why is this? Because women tend to focus their energy on caring for others before caring for themselves. We are helping our spouses and our parents and our children and other loved ones live longer, healthier lives, but not always taking the time to take care of ourselves. Q: How has COVID impacted our heart health? A: Since the onset of COVID-19 we have seen a significant increase in deaths from heart disease and…

When it comes to relentless optimism, country star Drake White has what you might call “real-world experience.” Back in August of 2019, the “Livin’ the Dream” singer was in the middle of a concert in Virginia when he suffered a sudden brain bleed, nearly collapsing onstage. Just months earlier he had been secretly diagnosed with AVM (arteriovenous malformation), and although the “abnormal” tangle of arteries and veins causes no problem at all in some patients, in White it created a massive stroke. Right there onstage, the passionately upbeat singer-songwriter lost the use of his left side—news that blazed through the country community like wildfire. But it never burned away White’s spirit. Throughout the journey since, White has been open with fans about his struggle and the intensive physical therapy he’s…

One of the most gratifying elements of media is the ability to share inspiration through people and their stories, and Ryan Seacrest has made quite a name for himself in broadcast doing just that. In 2009, while broadcasting his KIIS-FM radio show at the Children’s Hospital of Orange County, inspiration struck him in a new way when he saw firsthand how much patients and their families loved the energy and excitement the radio show brought to the hospital. The celebrity guests who visited to join on-air motivated children to get out of bed, despite fighting their toughest battles, to check out the action happening in the lobby. When Seacrest came to his parents and sister with an idea to create something that could live in hospitals as a fun, positive…

Six years ago, Southern Grist Brewing Co. launched its brewery and taproom in a 430-square foot space in East Nashville and garnered a fast following for its creative, small batch beers and community vibe. Two years later, founders Kevin Antoon, Jamie Lee, and Jared Welch opened a second location in The Nations, which gave them the expansive production facility and taproom they sorely needed.
