In Memoriam 2020: Music


The not-singing bird
With endless silence.
David Olney
People say it was a poetic exit. I assure you, NOBODY wants to die onstage figuratively or literally. On Jan. 18, Americana pioneer, singer-songwriter, recording artist, pre-pandemic streamcaster, actor, and my longtime client and good friend David Olney died of an apparent heart attack midsong. He was center stage between Amy Rigby and Scott Miller at the 30A Songwriter Festival in the Florida panhandle. His last words: “I’m sorry.” His mantra, however, was, “Always be true to the song.”
Understanding the covenant between the audience and performer, David earned rapt attention from folks wondering how to classify what they were witnessing. Was it country? Folk? Blues? Vaudeville? Scottish newspaper ....

The devastating global impact of COVID-19 dominated both news and cultural headlines throughout 2020, but Nashville’s jazz, blues and roots music communities responded by displaying a resolute spirit of perseverance and adaptation. Artists continued making vibrant music, and doing whatever they could to help offset a pandemic that shuttered music venues and ground tours and live shows to almost a total halt.
Before that happened in March, Music City enjoyed a pair of super blues concerts with the return of Christone “Kingfish” Ingram and the legendary Taj Mahal to area locales. Likewise, bop veterans Bobby Watson and Curtis Lundy rocked Rudy’s Jazz Room with a superb series of weekend concerts. In a hopeful sign, Louisiana bluesman Tab Benoit launched his national tour from the Ryman Auditorium in November. ....

It’s been very easy to feel overwhelmed in 2020, when it seems like the rules get rewritten every day — by a global pandemic, a long-overdue public conversation about systemic racism and more. But faced with an industry and a society undergoing all kinds of turbulence, musicians and business folk across Nashville’s constellation of music scenes responded with ingenuity and compassion. Even though there’s still much work to be done, there’s a great deal to take away from this extraordinary year — and to be proud of. In our Year in Music issue, we get perspective from outstanding musicians Kyshona Armstrong, Lilly Hiatt and Becca Mancari; our critics take stock of the year’s top local albums; we hand the mic to an array of ....

Year in Music 2020: Those We Lost

Each year, Nashville copes with the loss of people who make our conglomeration of music scenes feel like a community and show us the greatness we can aspire to. Perhaps no loss was felt more deeply in Music City in 2020 than that of someone who did both. Songwriter’s songwriter John Prine died in April at age 73 from complications of COVID-19. He was an unfailing mentor and friend, and his unassumingly brilliant songs have been an example for two generations.
In January, hours after he told a radio interviewer about how exciting he still found it to perform, David Olney died of an apparent heart attack onstage. He was 71. Kenny Rogers, one of the finest singers in the past half-century of country and pop music, died at 81 in March. Charley Pride, another astonishing singer who was the first Black country superstar (with more than 50 top 10 singles), was 86 when he died this month of COVID complications. Little Richa ....
