About this Raddle

Dirty Three played a late-night set at the Tennessee Theater on Friday, part of their first North American tour in 14 years. It was unhinged and Ellis was slightly off-putting, but it also melted my face off and left me invigorated, so, really, no complaints.

Theme: Big Ears 2026

My family and I recently returned from our favorite weekend of the year, the Big Ears music festival in Knoxville, TN. I saw over 30 acts this year. This week's Raddles feature some of my favorites.
