    Tristen: Baby Drugs

    After graduating from college, Tristen left her native Chicago and headed to Nashville to immerse herself in its more organic music scene. The city's influences began to weave their way into her sound – poppy songs with a twang. She is an artist to keep an eye on, as you can hear on Today's Top Tune, the irresistible "Baby Drugs," from Charlatans at the Garden Gate.
