There’s a photo of Ashly Badgett with a fat lip on Bashly’s Facebook page. It is proudly captioned with “Got hit in the face with one of Local Natives drumsticks.”
This general badassery of founder Badgett is one of the reasons Bashly was voted Artist of the Month by Deli readers this past summer. Numerous live shows around Nashville and a free EP has not hurt either. They are preparing for a blowout show at The Rutledge this Thursday before their focus is devoted to a full-length album. Kick the Robot, That’s My Kid and Keeps round out the bill, all for 5 bones.
“Fountains” was picked up by Lightning 100’s rotation; expect more of the same compelling vocals and dreamy soundscapes from their upcoming album. Their EP “Not Alone” is available for free here: https://noisetrade.com/bashlymusic/not-alone -Terra James-Jura
