That sounds like such an awesome festival! I’m from the South, but I’m stuck in the North for work. Going back down south is always a blessing & joy…but even better if there are awesome bands playing music for me! :)  Photographed by Deborah Lopez Why yes, this is the second Music Monday post featuring a Gin Blossoms cover (this was the first). Brooklyn based Bess Rogers has started a cover series called Bess Rogers Presents: Songs Other People Wrote. Each month, she’ll be releasing a new cover song, available for free download, on Bandcamp. If the rest are anything like... 1 comment May 13, 2013 - 11:08 PM
Gin Blossoms are so underrated. This is great.  Photographed by Jamie Clayton I didn’t know who Elim Bolt was until Jamie showed me this photo he took of their frontman, Johnnie Matthews. When I asked about them, he directed me to their song “Field” first. “Grew up in South Carolinaaaa…” Well, that’s a good start. Twangy guitars, a voice somewhere between Elvis and... 9 comments May 21, 2013 - 2:36 PM
Can’t wait see The CO! May 6, 2013 - 11:34 PM
As a six year resident of Charleston, I think our city is what you choose to experience. Patrician and regal,South of Broad, gritty and wild, Upper King, a place where you can create your scene. Also, as a friend of Johhnie and an avid follower of local music, douche is a completely inappropriate word. Uncouthness is very not Charleston. May 6, 2013 - 10:37 PM
Caroline & M – How would you describe Charleston? How much time have you spent there? May 6, 2013 - 3:48 PM
Coming from someone who calls Charleston home, I think Johnnie describes Charleston perfectly. Its such a beautiful place with pretty people walking around but also is home to a ton of creatives running wild. His music also reflects the city and their current incredible music scene coming up. Charleston is more than just walking around King and Meeting. And Jacob, you’re right, what I would do for some Xia Boa Biscuit after visiting Rogue Wave Surf Shop right now. I love Spring street. May 6, 2013 - 3:41 PM
He’s a douchey guy trying to sound cool. I agree with Caroline his description of Charleston is way off base. May 6, 2013 - 2:11 PM
Whoops, double post. Sorry about that. May 6, 2013 - 2:10 PM
Oh, but Caroline, it’s true. Walk down Spring Street on a Friday night and you’ll see what he’s talking about. May 6, 2013 - 2:10 PM
Oh, but Caroline, it’s true, too true. Walk down Spring Street on a Friday night and that’s what you’ll find. May 6, 2013 - 9:15 AM
FAIL at the way he described Charleston.  Photographed by Kelsi Williamson Earlier this month, Friendly Savages released their debut album O, Joshua! making Austin rooted folk-rock lovers proud. My introduction to this band was through Meraki Creative’s Penny and Sparrow video for “Brothers.” What else were that mandolin and accordion up to? I had to know. They somehow manage to bring a banjo and mandolin to the table in an... 1 comment April 29, 2013 - 5:39 PM
This song is SO GOOD. Not to mention, I just noticed that when I’m playing music on your site, the browser tab icon has an equalizer image! Awesome coding! lol  Photographed by Katie Snyder Everywhere you read about Sleepy Turtles, you see the same description: a band threaded in the old tradition of folk – humans sharing the human condition. I love that so much. This five piece band from Atlanta succeed not in putting you to sleep, as you may assume by their name, but in... 1 comment April 25, 2013 - 1:09 PM
Holy shoot. Thank you for this.  Photographed by Paul Clarke I’ve been watching the “Bottled Up Tight” music video for weeks, patiently waiting for Luke Sital-Singh‘s new EP release. This kid, and this voice. London, what’s in your water? His EP Old Flint came out this morning, and I had it download before 8:00 A.M. This will wake you up and break your... no comments  Photographed by Third Element Studios If you’ve got the words Gospel and Whiskey in your band name, chances are I’m going to love you. And that I do, Gospel Whiskey Runners. It was nearing midnight when I came across them on Folk Hive, describing their music as “a sort of perfection that’s hard to articulate.” Well, she was... no comments |
