In the cover story to our first-ever Nashville-themed issue, we talk with Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes about his stellar new solo album Upside Down Mountain, which reflects his newly settled domestic life after years of relentless touring and a prodigious output of poetry-infused lyrics.

We also bring you an insider’s look at Nashville’s thriving music scene — taking you inside some of the best venues in town, and offering songwriters insight on how to get ahead in Music City. We recount Nashville’s storied musical history, and tell you five of our favorite artists working in Nashville today.
