Last week my roommate tweeted that every Saturday is Record Store Day for him. It’s become a little tradition to start off the weekend by flipping through piles of old vinyl to find a treasure at Papa Jazz. We’re well aware of how lucky we are to have a record store like Papa Jazz, with […]

I very quickly realized while watching the Trouble the Youth shorts in the Nickelodeon Theatre yesterday that these were not popcorn-munching movies. Comprised of five films with subjects ranging from the war in Afghanistan to school shootings, this block was pretty heavy. I was going to have to keep my chewing discreet. The first film, […]

If I could use one word to describe this week’s featured artists, it would be “fresh.” All five have some unique quality or clean tone, and it’s going to be lovely and light. RY X– Ry Cuming is an Australian singer/songwriter with a pure, ethereal sound. His four-song EP Berlin will leave you satisfied with […]
Any modern music snob will tell you they know The Greatest Band You’ve Probably Never Heard Of. Someone they saw open for an up-and-comer at The Greatest Bar You’ve Probably Never Heard Of, or they discovered on The Greatest Music Website You’ve Probably Never Heard Of. But they’re all liars. I know The Greatest Band […]
Comedian Joe Pettis has created two of the best shows in Atlanta: Beer and Comedy Night, a twice-monthly show held at SweetWater Brewery, and Underwear Comedy Party, held once a month at the The Village Theatre, which is of course stand-up comics performing in their undies.

Facebook Event I remember one time a couple of years ago when a Clemson student who worked at the radio station tweeted for her followers to unfollow SceneSC because “they only tweeted about Gamecock football” and something else that I can’t remember. Probably local music, but who knows. I’ve toned it back on the Gamecock […]

April 1 brought the release of Cloud Nothings’ Here And Nowhere Else and as expected, it is angst-ridden and full of energy. This album, particularly the first few tracks, feels like a crush. The moments of tension, longing, hope, embarrassment, frustration and pure desire are all interwoven. When you catch a smile from that crush, […]
From the opening notes of the new Stefanie Bannister album I could tell I would fall in love with the rest. That says a lot for an artist I’ve only heard one song from, and that was mid last year through a Fork and Spoon Casual Friday session. At the same time, I wasn’t even […]

After steadily playing shows for two years, Charlotte’s It Looks Sad has been reluctant to release new music.

Comedian Doug Stanhope thrives in non-traditional stand up venues, with his skill for combining the grotesque and brilliant, New Brookland Tavern should be a perfect fit.
