Last week was a mixture of celebration and heartache for local rock musicians as acceptance and rejection emails for this year's NBN festival were sent to bands across Middle Tennessee. While festival organizers are still nailing down the final lineup they have released a preliminary list of who we can expect to see at this year's best weekend of local music. Tickets for individual nights as well as wristbands and VIP badges are currently on sale at TicketsNashville.com. Wristbands and badges will get you into exclusive NBN afterparties as well as delivering special NBN-only discounts at select retail outlets, bars, coffeehouses and restaurants throughout the NBN week. Wristbands are $40 and VIP badges are $100.

The festival will go down Oct. 7-11 at venues such as Exit/In, 12th & Porter, Cannery Ballroom, The End, The Rutledge, Mercy Lounge, The Basement, The 5 Spot, Bluebird Cafe, The Belcourt and more. We've heard some exciting rumors of national acts slated to be added to the bill and there is still plenty of NBN info to announce in the days to come. For now, check out the initial lineup after the jump.

Fuuuuuuuuuck, that looks like basically a motherfucker lineup. I cannot wait to get back to town to be involved with that shit! By ALL means!
Ps dukes of deville are fucking amazing. Matt mahaffey produced a lot of their record, and I was pretty blown away when he played it for me.

Maloney, you have to all ready be privy to their pop styles.

We will definitely be playing NBN. We were told that this announcement only covers the bands that already have their slots worked out.
We would guess that the local bands who were conspicuously absent from the list will be announced at a later date. We know that Tristen's playing, too.

what is the purpose of having bands play NBN who are not currently pushing a new record, and who appeared at last years NBN?
This is why Nashville is NOT the new LA.. or Austin.
