Music Citizens Episode 3: The Tuner ready for launch on Sunday, April 6th.

Episode 3 of Music Citizens tracks down Brent Arledge, Nashville’s, and possibly the world’s most prolific piano tuner. Arledge has played an uncredited part of every top ten hit featuring piano to come out of Music Row for the past 25 years. He tunes The Ryman, The Schermerhorn and The Grand Ole Opry. He is trusted in the homes of so many Nashville musicians. 

In a city that is often so good at recognizing the key players on a song, service workers like Arledge are often forgotten. This episode gives credit where credit is due.

WNXP Nashville Artist of the Month Annie DiRusso pretty rapidly went from fan to friend and collaborator of fellow Music City artist Ruston Kelly. This month both DiRusso and Kelly released albums featuring the other one, and hosted hometown shows where they were special guests. Here's the tale of two songs, more or less, stories straight from their mouths and sound from each of their concerts.

WNXP’s Nashville Artist of the Month Annie DiRusso released her first full-length album Super Pedestrian this month. Having first moved to Nashville to find the indie scene male-dominated, she's grown in influence and confidence as a songwriter and guitarist. Like it or not, and Annie quite likes it, this is no longer the boys' club of yesteryear.

LA LOM stands for Los Angeles League of Musicians, paying homage to the trio’s hometown. But with the release of their self-titled debut, LA LOM stands in a league of their own. Drawing inspiration from the diversity of the Los Angeles sound, the instrumental group blends everything from surf rock and rockabilly to cumbia and boleros. Bottom line, it’s groovy. It’s also unique — while it feels nostalgic of the ’50s and ’60s, the sound (consisting solely of guitar, drums and bass) somehow feels contemporary and exciting. Perhaps because few artists in dance music are bold enough to take such a simple and direct approach to music making. No fancy production or special effects needed for LA LOM to get you on your feet.

Watch LA LOM perform “Danza de LA LOM,” “La Tijera” and “Alacrán” live at WNXP’s Sonic Cathedral here.

The SEC Basketball Tournament has bounced from one host city to another, depending on the year, but now Nashville will be the host for the next decade. As mostly everyone will be filling out their bracket, there’s a chance that more than 10 teams from the conference could potentially compete in the NCAA Tournament, making this tourney as close as we can get to a Final Four in Nashville.

On this week's What Where When-sday, WPLN's Rachel Iacovone and WNXP's Marquis Munson talk about why the SEC chose Nashville as its host city and options for those trying to watch the games this week, including events at Acme Feed & Seed, Skydeck on Broadway and Music City Walk of Fame Park.
