From the Department of Stop Saying That: It is actually possible for more than one type of music to emanate from a city. Even Nashville. Even electronic music.

Regarding Paper Route, Christina Fuoco-Karasinski (owner of my favorite music writer name since Saby Reyes-Kulkarni) says, "It doesn't seem likely that an electronic band would have much in common with Nashville, but then again Paper Route is no typical act." Uh, yeah.

About Jensen Sportag, someone with a much less interesting name writes, "Did i seriously just read these guys are from Nashville? Wow...must be hard playing this kind of stuff in the country music epicenter." Dude. You seriously just read that.

Dude must not know about the Nashville Moog.

Wow, you actually posted something about Paper Route. I figured they'd have to be selling out the Ryman before you started paying attention to this band.
