    With the repeated declaration of “we’re gonna have some fun,” “Invitation” (the opening track on Shoot the Mountain’s self-titled EP) is precisely that: an invitation to join the band in their jovial sonic blow-by-blow of a euphoric, PBR-induced night on the disco floor. Culling from the best in post-punk, New Wave, indie rock and sheer power-pop for inspiration, the local quartet’s debut offering... captures the finest moments of a live set that has garnered the band a rapidly growing reputation as one Nashville's most exciting commodities. Joe Blankenship, the front man, and Jonathan Brock, the bass player, have been in a band together since they were high school freshmen in Murfeesboro, Tennessee. Their passion for creating a unique spine tingling pop, still explodes onto the stage every time you see them live. As if their music was actually demolishing some mountain of garbage blocking their path, the catchy melodies and guttural yells from the microphone mixed with the head slamming ferocity of the drum tight rhythm section blast crunchy beats and hooky guitar riffs flying into the audience. Their sound is head turning, dance inducing, wildly energetic, and from the heart. Come see for yourself the always refreshing and never boring musical power that is Shoot The Mountain.

    Also performing: Poly, Backwords, and Joel Mcanulty
