Our new issue is out! This time the cover goes to a dear friend who passed away from breast cancer a little over a year ago, Jane Marczewski aka .
-
In our NU sabbatical from creating new content, we dipped off BTS to answer a call from this Angel to help her manage her career while she was working on her health. As a friend, this was a request we felt deep in our hearts to help her fulfill.
-
Fresh off the heels of AGT, a new diagnosis and catching lightning in a bottle with her career, we knew how important it was for Jane to see these dreams come true on this side of Heaven.
-
Fast forward some time, we lost Jane in February of 2022, we were gutted and grieving but shortly after, we knew what she wanted us to do with her art she made in the hardest season of her life.
-
On 3/10 with the help of Jane’s family, The Nightbirde Foundation] , Jane’s producer , the creative team headed by and our NU team, we were album to get one of many of Jane’s wishes out in the world, her posthumous, debut album “it’s ok”, which is available now.
-
Check out more of this story in our most recent issue of the Nashville Unsigned magazine.
-
And go follow The Nightbirde Foundation] where Jane’s record label and publishing company are setup to financially benefit the foundation for as long as her art is consumed to help other women with breast cancer seek alternative treatments.

Our NU music Friday playlist is moving to Mondays because holy s**t you guys are dropping unexpected bombs on us and Mondays are easier. So welcome to Nu Music Monday.
-
This week we have the lovely gracing the cover. The story of NIGHTBIRDE is gut wrenching and beautiful all at the same time. Nightbirde passed away from breast cancer last year and her family and team made it their mission to get NIGHTBIRDE’s music and art out in the world. Not only that they started to aid young women like Jane financially to give them a chance to seek alternative treatments.
-
Her family and team released her collection of work, 11 quotes and 9 songs all in one to honor Jane’s legacy. The album is titled “it’s ok”.
A pure work of art that Jane left for us all from herself and her producer .
-
More songs added this week are from epic indie artists like and so much more.

Here’s your 2023 festivals to attend, based on our suggestions.
-
Some of our absolute favorites we want to highlight are Hangout Music Festival because there really is no better festival, than one on the beach. Deep Tropics is not only the greenest music festival in the entire country (step it up everyone else) but they always come with a stacked lineup right in the middle of nashville while also pushing the boundaries in innovation. Lastly, the long running SXSW that puts on more indie artists than any other festival.
-
Honorable mentions EDSea Boston Calling Music Festival Bourbon And Beyond Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival Pitchfork Music Festival Railbird Festival Shaky Knees Festival The Peach Music Festival Coachella The Governors Ball Music Festival Stagecoach Festival Cali Vibes Fest and more for our next issue.

Drop in the comments below your favorite festival or the one you’re looking forward to this year.
