Bliss Bliss at Mockingbird
2023-07-13 19:00 | The Mockingbird Theater at The Factory at Franklin, 230 Franklin Road, Bldg 6, Franklin, TN, 37064, United States
“Sometimes music becomes cinema. Some people call this synesthesia when colors are heard and sounds become light and hue. That is the sound track of BlissBliss. These guys are on the money when it comes to tracking their inner world but have this joie de vivre that redeems the sadness, heals the wound, and offers it all up with gratitude.”
David Bunker-Consultant-Storyville Collective/Former Head of A&R, REX Records
Lang & Renee are veterans of the music industry as signed label artists, as well as having toured and performed as background vocalists and musicians for and with artists like Amy Grant, Michael W Smith, Michael McDonald, and Alex Harvey. As BlissBliss, they’ve created their own brand of Sophistipop/Yacht Rock, pulling from influences like Steely Dan, John Mayer, and Sting but creating a sound unlike any of them.
Their songs have charted on CHR radio, (Fight For Peace-#1) and the Billboard Dance charts as well, through numerous dance remixes of their songs done by world renowned DJs/Producers such as Dave Aude, Hex Hector, and Bimbo Jones.
“BlissBliss’s dedication to the legacy of sophisti-pop is sure to resonate with fans of the genre, but BlissBliss is no mere revivalist act. Lang and Renee have forged a unique and polished sound with an attention to detail and a level of musicianship often missing in modern popular music.” JakeJenkins/InSync Magazine

2023-07-15 20:00 | The Franklin Theatre, 419 Main Street, Franklin, 37064, United States
Will Hoge – The Franklin Theatre – July 15
Will Hoge is a mainstay of 21st century rock & roll, carrying the torch for a blue-collar sound rooted in ringing Telecaster guitars and anthemic songwriting. He makes music for roadhouses and rallies, for car stereos and dive-bar jukeboxes, for Saturday night hell-raising and Sunday morning comedowns. In an era of social media influencers looking to fast-track their way to fame, Hoge has proudly taken the long way around, dedicating himself not to the destination, but to the journey itself.
The trek continues with Wings On My Shoes, the twelfth studio album in a career whose milestones include Number One hits, Grammy nods, major-label record deals, and hard-won independence. Written amidst the doom and gloom of a pandemic that brought his touring schedule to a standstill, it’s a record that seeks out silver linings, emphasizing bright moments over looming darkness. For Hoge, Wings On My Shoes also marks a recommitment to the amplified Americana sound that’s earned him a global audience, as well nods from Rolling Stone, Forbes, and NPR.
