This past Wednesday, an eagerly anticipated text message was waiting for me when I got off work. It read simply, “You’re Set.” It was from SceneSC’s founder and Editor in Chief David Stringer, and was in reference to my attempts to get press access to the Bassnectar show that night. Since emerging in 2005 Lorin [...]
After a seven-and-a-half hour drive from Virginia to Pennsylvania that was only supposed to take six and a marginally good night’s sleep, I woke up in Pittsburgh to see snow falling on my friend Bobby’s deck. Sorry, shorts I foolishly packed. It’s not going to be your week. The snow could’ve gotten us down – [...]
By Alexis Schwallier: Red isn’t just the name of Taylor Swift’s latest album, or her sold out tour. From red lipstick, sparkly red shoes, and a fire-red guitar, it was obvious the color was the theme of the night. Coincidence? I think not. Everyone can relate to songs about love, heartbreak, and the struggles [...]
Saturday at Savannah Stopover started out with a rehashing/learning how the previous night’s escapades unfolded. After being generally unpleased with myself, I was able to shrug off my disappointment and embrace the sunshine and low-70-degree temperatures outside. It was a new day and there were new bands and venues to discover. Since the music didn’t start [...]
Knocturnal has developed a reputation for being the place for local MC’s to strut their stuff. On Mardi Gras Eve, I made my way to Charlotte, NC in search of some of the southeast’s finest hip hop and Trap music, and I was not disappointed. The evening began, as every Knocturnal event does, with an [...]
Review by Jessie Langs Photos by Heather Fowler We go to a lot of concerts. They’re something I enjoy a ton, so I usually go every time a band I like swings through the South. By this point in time, I’ve seen most of the bands that I’ve loved for a long time. The [...]
Where were Junior Astronomers? Since its inaugural event in 2010, The Stuffing, a concert put on by the Favorite Gentlemen community of artists the night before Thanksgiving, has been an extremely successful event. It’s an ambitious concert, taking over the Center Stage complex in downtown Atlanta, bands play from 5 until midnight on three separate [...]
Cold Beer and Cigarettes Bazan was on it at Cat’s Cradle in Carborro Sunday, November 18. The crowd was not. If you are familiar with David Bazan live shows, it’s a regular part of his performance to take questions between songs. It gives him time to not only [...]

Charleston got a good taste of Tennessee-and-Louisiana-bred rock this past Saturday when The Delta Saints played Charleston’s Pour House with The Dirty Guv’nahs. The Delta Saints made the night with their gritty, soulful southern rock vibes and beyond infectious energy. Throughout the night they played songs mostly from their upcoming album Death Letter Jubilee, which [...]

Last Thursday, the amazing Ben Rector graced Music Farm’s stage with special guest Marc Scibilia. Marc Scibilia, like Rector, is a Nashville-based singer/songwriter. His set wasn’t extravagant in the least, but it was hard to look away from him just jamming on stage with his red Gibson and crooning into his vintage microphone. He played [...]

Photos by Alexis Shwallier Warped Tour 2012 hit Charlotte’s Verizon Wireless Amphitheater on Monday, July 30th. There were ups and downs throughout the day, including being tricked into watching a graphic four-minute-long video on inhumane practices in the meat industry but getting paid for it, my friend losing her phone in the middle of the [...]

I may have been in the wrong Carolina this weekend, but it sure was the right time to be in the wrong place. My friend and I drove to Asheville for Bele Chere, the largest free festival in the Southeast. (That’s right, I said free.) Rightly named, Bele Chere showed us some “beautiful living” in [...]

When LA’s TV Girl crossed into South Carolina on Wednesday afternoon, it was like they had found the promised land of freely available pyrotechnics and reasonably priced petroleum products. Fireworks or not, TV Girl and We Roll Like Madmen put on quite a show last Wednesday at The Radio Room. As Clemson-based EDM act We [...]
Fitz and the Tantrums–Greenville, SC “Is it a Wednesday night? Well this is the place to be, because this is where the dance party will begin,” declared Michael Fitzpatrick of Fitz and the Tantrums at their Handlebar show last night in Greenville. He was right, if you were anywhere else; you missed out on one [...]
![[Show Review] Austin Crane at Immaculate Consumption](http://www.scenesc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/AC.jpg.pagespeed.ce.uVND0pdHpC.jpg "[Show Review] Austin Crane at Immaculate Consumption")
Austin Crane-The Mission (Live) Monday morning I got a call from Austin Crane and I ignored it. I was in the shower, and as I peaked around the shower curtain to see who it was, I was happily surprised. Austin calling me was almost tempting enough to risk my iPhone getting wet, and answering his [...]
