Hey guys! I'm Preston and I make indie/rock music. I'm heading out on my first ever DIY tour next next month and Nashville will be the first band show (8/13). I figured I'd finally get on Reddit and say hi since I've heard nothing but good things about the scene! I'm a little nervous posting this, it's actually my first time using Reddit for anything promotional lol, but I'd genuinely love to meet you guys if you're around. Show's at The East Room and music kicks off at 8pm.

If you grab a ticket ahead of time, I'll hook you up with a free signed polaroid when you come through. Hope to see you all there! :)

My 501c3 mental health non-profit uses the things we love in pop culture as a way to reach people who may not be getting the help they need.

On August 22nd, we are hosting Even Superheroes Face Addiction, a free, secular, support group for newcomers as well as people who have already begun their journey to sobriety.

And yes...we'll be joined by an actual superhero! Actress Yancy Butler got the gig of a lifetime, playing the title character in the TNT series Witchblade. The show was a hit, but Butler's alcohol addiction was spiraling out of control and it became impossible for the show to continue filming. Yancy will be joining us to share her story of addiction and recovery, and we'll have local experts on hand to help guide you towards ongoing care.

To make things even more laid back...we are holding the event in a toy store! Toy Lair (an AWESOME retro toy store) is letting us use their space in the game room for the event! No indoctrination or criticism will happen at this event...come as you are and lets chat!

Space is limited, so RSVP at the link below.
