2012 Indie Grits Schedule and Music
While I was reading through all of the events for this years Indie Grits Festival I had a major breakthrough and it’s something that I just realized. This will hopefully, probably, pretty much definitely, be the last Indie Grits at their current location behind the state house on Main Street. By this time next year [...]
Free Download: Nada Surf-”Waiting for Something”
After hearing “When I Was Young” off Nada Surf’s new album The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy coming out January 24, it quickly became my most anticipated album of 2012. Stars will be Nada Surf’s seventh studio album and first album of new material released in four years. The new album is focused on capturing [...]
Stereofly Get’s Caught in South Carolina’s Media Web
SceneSC and Stereofly will never get along. We can’t. While their mission is so similar to ours, there will always be one thing that holds us back from being friends in the web world. We love the fact that more websites are popping up to cover local music across the Southeast. Since we became a [...]
New Music From Wylie
Facebook Event Finally! At least once a week someone asks me what’s going on with Wylie? I always tell them the truth. They pretty much took a year off to focus on recording and writing their first full length album and to focus on who they want to be as a band. That always always [...]

The Death of Sons Club
At SceneSC there is nothing we love more than other local music blogs. If we are lucky enough to find one out there it is pretty much a guarantee that everyone on our staff pays regular attention to it. I can’t remember when it was that I can across Sons Club. It was probably sometime [...]
William F. Gibbs – Mexican Home (John Prine Cover)
I came across these porch videos and live videos from Greenville photographer/videographer Daniel McCord a little later than I would have liked. When I saw he posted a new acoustic video featuring Will Gibbs playing a John Prine song I was excited, but when I started watching all of McCord’s other videos on his Vimeo [...]
Run Dan Run – “Recording Normal; The Mantras That Made It Happen”
This is Dan McCurry of the Charleston-based indie rock band Run Dan Run. I’d like to take a moment to share some DIY recording wisdom & mantras that I’ve acquired over the past 5-6 years with Run Dan Run. RDR has been DIY from the get-go and much of what we have learned has been [...]

Death on Two Wheels: Top 5′s & Looking Back
Trae Vedder – Vocals, Guitar Looking Back… We’ve had a trying year that’s had its fair share of ups and downs; we’ve lost, we’ve gained, we’ve taken some punches, but we’ve gotten back up again, and we’re going to keep on doing so. Ultimately, it’s been an incredible year as we started our new album. [...]
Frontier Sons Acoustic Session
Frontier Sons play a breed of anthematic rock n roll found on radio stations across America. And just as bands with an assortment of high flying rock songs do, Frontier Sons have balanced it out with the song featured here. “Sleep Well” is a heartfelt song reflecting on love lost and coming of age.
kemp ridley 2011: Year two
Hello all, Cam Powell here, bass player for kemp ridley (and Scene SC intern/writer/booking contact/I don’t know what my title is anymore). 2011 was our second full year of existence, and a monumental one at that. Over the course of the past 12 months, we’ve laid a foundation for what we hope will be continued [...]
Run Dan Run – “Recording Normal; The Gear That Made It Happen”
This is Dan McCurry of the Charleston-based indie rock band Run Dan Run. You probably haven’t heard of us. That’s okay, we get that a lot actually. If you hadn’t heard, well, we recently put the finishing touches on our sophomore release Normal (out nationally on 1.10.12 on Hearts & Plugs), which we recorded entirely [...]
WSBF Live Studio Sessions
Clemson’s radio station WSBF is truly the life force behind original music in the Clemson area and they do a good job not only on air, but by putting on shows and with their live studio broadcasts. WSBF being a good college radio station isn’t anything new. It has been for years now. And over [...]
