The Civil Wars’ debut album, Barton Hollow, is honest, heartbreaking, uplifting and as real as it gets. Made up of Joy Williams and John Paul White, this new group has taken the Nashville music scene by storm. And with their recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, they will surely take the nation and world by storm, too. You shouldn’t try doing homework while listening to the record, as it’s hard to sit there not eagerly listening and waiting for the next line to relate to your life. The album does the extraordinary thing of taking all aspects of love and putting them onto a four and a half inch disk. The album starts off with the lingering track “20 Years.” Already, just one track in, you are ready for a story to be told to you through song. A high spot of the album for me is the song “Posison and Wine.” The song, which was featured on NBC’s Grey’s Anatomy, is the one that propelled the duo to stardom. The lyrics capture all sides of love. When Williams sings Your hands can heal / your hands can bruise, you can really feel the emotion and truth she presents with her voice. The song takes the good and the bad of love and compares them, leaving you not knowing what to feel. The title track for the album, “Barton Hollow” is Americana in its purest form. The song, written about White’s childhood home in Loretto, Tenn., is one that almost everyone can relate to. Life is hard a lot of the times, and sometimes it feels...

Respect, bragging rights, an undefeated record and an entire boulevard were at stake on Tuesday night when the Battle of the Boulevard went down inside Allen Arena. Coming off of a big win against USC Upstate, the Bisons had all the confidence in the world that they would be able to improve since the last time they faced the Bruins. The Bisons lost that game 88-52 less than two weeks ago. With the deck stacked against them coming into the game and for much of the first half, the Bisons were able to rally from an 18-point deficit with 24 minutes left in the game. “For the first 16 minutes, we were not very good,” Coach Scott Sanderson said. “We didn’t do anything we wanted to do offensively and defensively. I was extremely aggravated at our players.” In the last four minutes of the first half, the Bisons started their run. Trailing 38-20, the Bisons cut it to 40-31 with an 11-2 run that re-energized not only the team but the fans as well. Luckily for Sanderson, the Bisons did not stop their scoring when the half ended. The Bisons came out red-hot and outscored their cross-town rivals 42-24. “To come back from an 18-point deficit says even more about the resiliency of our players,” Sanderson said. “But it is one game with nine more games to go. We have 32 days to keep getting better until March gets here.” After the game at Belmont earlier this month, some questioned if Lipscomb center Adnan Hodzic was outmatched by Belmont big men Mick Hedgepeth and Scott Saunders. The Bosnian native...
