Local Album Art Repository

I recently got one of those fancy portable digital music players with a high-resolution screen that can show the album artwork for the track it's playing. This beautiful device made it painfully clear that I was missing artwork for most of the MP3 files in my collection. I thought it would be easy to use the Internet to find artwork for most of my files.

However, I was sorely disappointed at the Internet's lack of high-quality artwork for music by many of Middle Tennessee's bands. I decided to rectify the situation and created this repository.

I hope to collect, store, preserve, and distribute the artwork for local acts' albums that may not have been widely released. However, my own personal collection is rather limited. If you have something you would like to contribute, please .

Fan-Contributed Artwork

In addition to the "official" artwork above, I wanted to share some artwork made by fans of the bands. Not only is the artwork fun, but it can also be used with your digital music collection or on your portable music player.

Again, if you have something to contribute (even if it's for a show or recording that's already got artwork), I'd love to add it to the collection. Just .

Miscellaneous Images

Lastly, I wanted to share some of the band-related images I've collected over the years. Many of these images were rescued from now-defunct websites so unfortunately there are no high-resolution versions of the images.
