“It is the
mission of The End., to expose the public to unheard, unseen and unperformed artists and works
which will enrich and educate the public in a capacity previously unexplored.”
“Together with our good friend Randall Nichols, we have organized one of the most popular
bands in Nashville to basically tear the roof off of The End” said Planet Ink.

local. Its going to be a foot stomping psychedelic good time” says Planet Ink.
About Planet Ink:
“Planet Ink is a blues rock band based in Florence, AL and founded by brothers Michael and

The Blackfoot Gypsies
About The Blackfoot Gypsies:
“Nashville’s Blackfoot Gypsies are a rock’n’roll band– straight up, no modifiers necessary. With
four years, four releases and countless miles under their belt as a two-piece guitar and drums
powerhouse, Zach Murphy and Matthew Paige have recently added fellow brethren Dylan
Whitlow (bass) and Ollie Dogg (harmonica), bolstering their passionate, careening, undeniably
American sound. Seeing the band live is like watching someone cling to a firehouse at full blast
or dig their heels in atop a thrashing mechanical bull…holding on for dear life, slowly guiding
and reacting to forces at the brink of their control, somehow coming up aces in the end.”
“Blackfoot Gypsies have shared bills with everyone from the Alabama Shakes and Trampled by
Turtles to Futurebirds, The Ettes and The Carolina Chocolate Drops. Their second full-length
LP, ‘Handle It’ (2014), is the band’s debut as a full-throttle four piece. Drawing inspiration from
the downhome roots of the Delta blues and the foreboding ghosts of country music’s past,
Murphy, Paige & Co. go to the same well as Zeppelin, the Stones and The Faces, coming up with
bucketful of angsty rock’n’roll that’ll jolt your flat lined heart back into rhythm.
