Show Reviews
Clarence Greenwood, more commonly known by his stage name Citizen Cope, played to a sold out audience at the Music Farm this past Saturday. His enthusiastic and energized band perfectly balanced out his calm, cool, and collected demeanor, making for a great night of reggae-alt-soul-pop tunes. Having heard mixed reviews of his live show, I [...]
By Heather Fowler: 9.28.12 at Amos’ Southend Just stepping outside it has become obvious that summer is coming to a close. But if you were at Amos Southend on Tuesday night then would never would have guessed. The show started with a punch with The Ready Set. A fun, energetic band was was perfect for [...]
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 [...]
If you weren’t at 5 Points Pub last Wednesday to see Heyrocco and Civil Twilight put on a show, then I feel very sorry for you. Both bands came to play (literally) and both bands won the crowd over. Heyrocco started off their set with “The American Tourist” and then went on with “Whales,” from [...]
We got the lovely Adrienne Wilson to write our Sasquatch Festival show review this year and she did a fantastic job. Thanks Adrienne!

It blows me away how much notoriety Ernest Greene’s bedroom recording project has garnered him in the last three years or so. ”He’s so hot! I love him!” my friend Remy told [...]
Wednesday, May 16th, Matthew Mayfield and David Ramirez rolled into Nashville for a night of intimate music. For the second straight night I found myself at 12th and Porter, where the two singer/songwriters played a day after Gregory Alan Isakov. Playing first out of the two was Matthew Mayfield. Originally, I found both of these artists through their serialbox sessions. Mayfield, from [...]
“That show made me feel like I was having the best seizure of my life” – Pedro Lopezdevictoria regarding last Friday’s Reptar show in Athens, GA. I would have to wholeheartedly agree with that statement and also add that after the show, I was covered in half of Athens’ sweat. The stench is probably never [...]
“Man your own jack hammer!” the crowd screamed in time with Claudio Sanchez as Coheed and Cambria tore up Music Farm’s stage in Charleston last Monday with Pianos Become the Teeth and Moving Mountains. Charleston served as the second stop in their first tour since drummer Chris Pennie and original bassist of the group Mic [...]
