Listen to UMC20
This week’s UMC20 playlist will take you through some unexpected turns!
The genres are plentiful. You want hip hop and R&B? There’s a big block of it, right at the beginning. Want experimental electronica? We got you, fam. Want hard rock and metalcore? You’ll find it within these 20 tracks!
Oh, and because we missed last week — sorry, we were busy launching an agency — we included not one, but two episodes of The Quinn Spinn as bonus tracks at the end!

Hear What You Should
Three minutes are all Wrong Eagle needs to take us through love’s soaring highs and extreme lows.
Hear ‘Crazy’
Last week was a two-show week for NashLive! at The Cobra Nashville — and it was time to bring some rock back to the stage.

Yeah, we did have to throw the May pun into the headline, because it’s May. If you didn’t see what we did there at first, now you know.

The Stonewall Vessels spent a large portion of their pre-COVID lives touring and gigging constantly, playing 200+ shows from Nashville to Rhode Island, and everywhere in between.
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, they had to re-adjust. They bought their own recording equipment and got to work on new music.
The fruits of their efforts are starting to bloom — and the first new single is the song they’ve always wanted to write.
Stream ‘Hallmaze’
It’s pretty odd to think that we’re coming to the tail end of 2020. For one thing, things have actually picked up here considerably in UMC Land in December, with more live streams and all sorts of other fun on our plates. Imagine that — a December that actually gets busier as it goes.
For another, more obvious point: it has certainly felt at times like 2020 would never end, hasn’t it?

Complex and lively funk rhythms, scorching guitar work, and a light psychedelic polish are the sonic hallmarks of “Memories Made,” the first single from Smooth Retsina Glow‘s forthcoming album.
Hear the Single
Andrew C. Marshall released his debut full-length album, Terrestrial Radio, on Oct. 30. The progressive, eclectic alternative rock record — produced by Mitch Dane at Nashville’s Sputnik Sound — is a mosaic, drawing from the Nashville-based songwriter’s vast musical palette.
We had a chance to chat with Andrew about the record, his upbringing in rural Utah, what the future holds. Watch below!
