Sweet Tennessee [Tunes]

Theobald Tunes is coming at you a day late due to Christmas.

I figured I would wait until all of you had your new Beats By Dre to listen to my playlist for the week. Wait… Those are still relevant, right?

Anyway, I have recently been reminiscing on concerts I have attended in the past since I have not been to a live concert since The Avett Brothers on Dec. 5, 2015. (Click HERE to read my blog post about that experience.)

One of the best concerts I went to over the past year and a half was Cereus Bright and Judah & the Lion. This concert was filled with contagious positivity. Both bands were extremely high energy and attentive to the crowd.

I originally bought tickets to see Judah & the Lion, because Cereus Bright was opening for them. At the time, I had just seen Cereus Bright about a week or so before in Knoxville, Tennessee and was in groupie mode. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Judah & the Lion was equally amazing.

The performance was at the Hi-Tone Cafe in Memphis, Tennessee. Considering I am from Memphis, I figured this would be the perfect time to take a trip home & to explore a venue I had never been to before. This venue was really different to me. I liked the intimacy it offered to the audience in connection to the artists. It felt small but not in a claustrophobic way –  more in a “I actually have a chance of meeting these guys” kind of way.
