Get Bryan McPherson’s new live EP Live at The Milestone for 1 Dollar!

Last summer Bryan McPherson played a string of sweaty shows opening up for Tim Barry and Cory Branan, with the last night of the tour at The Milestone in Charlotte. Unbeknownst to him, the show was recorded and now it’s been posted for just one dollar - or more if you feel generous.

RUST Magazine Trapped in Atlanta!

On January 28th we went into the downtown area of Atlanta to do a photo shoot with Jeff Syracuse who works with BMI in Nashville and was visiting the city. The whole idea was to get pictures in the snow - but little did either of us know that the snow would cripple the city and trap us. It took Jeff 11 hours to get back to Marietta and it took RUST two days to get back to our home. But the culture of southern hospitality turned this nightmare into a million stories of people helping people. This photo was taken just around Noon and you can see the traffic flowing freely behind Jeff. Half an hour later it was gridlock with freezing temperatures and a city in emergency mode.

But the pictures were GREAT! See more on our Flickr page!
