Summer Jams

This is my first jam session. Couldn’t have picked two better artists to be my first. A new era has begun for All Get Out. This is the first release since guitarist Mel Washington, and bassist Mike Rogers left the band. Nathan Hussey picks up where he left off with another great song reminiscent of [...]

We haven’t been able to keep with Summer Jams, Winter Jams, or anything ever. It seems pretty simple, but for some reason no one can keep them up consistently. Well we’re giving it one last go with “Jam Sessions” every Friday. This weeks features two very different SC artists. Emily McCollum’s name is no [...]
It’s been a while since I’ve updated everyone on what I’ve been listening to this summer. It’s mostly been Bon Iver, Washed Out, Manchester Orchestra, Dawes and Madi Diaz. I’ve been wearing all of that out and I still find time to cram in everything else. I’m going on opposite ends of the spectrum for [...]
Oh sweet summertime. Music festivals and late nights. Rupert went to Bonnaroo, I worked CMA Fest. We cover ALL the bases here at SceneSC, and that’s pretty much the theme of my summer jamz post this week. Hell on Heels -Pistol Annies As you may know, Miranda Lambert is my spirit animal. I love everything [...]
Ben Gibbard-Carolina I’m ready for my summer music selections. I’ve been listening to a lot of great new music lately. Most of it has been featured on the website by myself, Cameron or Rupert. The other day I plugged in my old hard drive and came across “Carolina” by Ben Gibbard and fell back in [...]
For this edition of vinyl jams, I’m featuring my first LP. I feel like it’s unfair for a segment focused on the analog to start anywhere other than with analog purist Steve Albini when it comes the LP format, so here’s one of Albini’s finest works. Prayer To God Shellac – 1000 Hurts (2000) In [...]
For this edition of vinyl jams, I’m flipping it over to the B-Side. Here are two of my favorite releases that have especially great B-Sides: First, I’ve got Matt Pond PA’s Starting 7″. This is the first release in a series of EPs put out as accompaniment to the 2009 full-length The Dark Leaves. Matt [...]
Welcome back to another vinyl edition of Summer Jams. Today’s Jams are two awesome 7″ singles I picked up at 52.5 Records in Charleston this morning. As we mention on the site before, they’re closing their doors on Nov. 1, so make sure you take some time out to stop by before it’s too late [...]
Polite Dance Song – The Bird and the Bee Polite Dance Song – The Bird and the Bee I’m already falling out of my summer jam mood and into some fall james, but I guess summer’s only got a couple more weeks. This song is a more transitional summer to fall jam. So check it [...]
Here’s another vinyl edition of summer jams for your listening pleasure. This week, it’s all about rejection. Songs about the big, fat NO and the feeling of a trapdoor opening up beneath your feet. Now, normally I’d have two releases to feature for my jams, but in the last week, there’s literally only been one [...]
Dawn of the Dead – Does It Offend You, Yeah? Dawn of the Dead – Does It Offend You, Yeah? I am late. I just discovered this song about three months ago. It came out in 2008. To make up for that ignorance, I had known of the band in 2008, but I knew of [...]
By: Hillary Lancaster The Rocket Summer- I need a Break, but I\’d Rather Have a Breakthrough Bryce Avary of the Rocket Summer is my Taylor Hanson. Girls, you know that’s a big deal– Which is why, of course, Bryce’s most recent release ‘Of Men and Angels’ is in heavy rotation this summer. Coming from a [...]
Back again for another vinyl edition of SceneSC’s summer jams. This edition is all about influences: your bands’ favorite bands. These two artists have been major forces behind the evolution of their respective genres and their music is just as relevant as it was the day these records were released, if not more so. So, [...]
Malletoba Spank – Duke Ellington Over the past year, my interest in jazz music has grown into a long lasting relationship. In the past few weeks however, Duke Ellington has been the musician I have spent the majority of my time getting familiar with. He is very upbeat, yet laid back, and that is what [...]
Adventure – Be Your Own Pet Adventure – Be Your Own Pet I miss Be Your Own Pet. But I still love Jemina Pearl. I almost forgot about this song until I had to write a paper for class. I wrote about Adventure, and immediately remembered why I loved it. It’s hard to jam to [...]
