Record of the Week: Bats 'Good Game Baby'

Nashville native Jess Awh hated country music. Until she moved away and started missing home. Now she’s back and she’s written an album that is country in its core but also dabbles in long extensions of layers of found sound that she has been collecting since she was 15, big droning guitar. For Nashvillians there are detailed references to what it’s like to drive on Dickerson Pike after a DRKMTR show after 11 o’clock at night and the relatable song title, “Downtown Sucks You Can’t Park Anymore.” Jess Awh’s band is Bats and their new album, Good Game Baby is our Record of the Week.
