Josh Roberts And The Hinges — It takes a special brand of talent to be both a crowd favorite and a musician’s musician; perhaps no one — locally, anyhow — exemplifies that kind of gap-bridging talent better than Josh Roberts and the Hinges. Musically dynamic yet accessible, lyrically poetic and fist-pump chant-worthy, the Hinges pack venues with their heady yet noodle-worthy tunes, yet their cohesive tightness and stellar harmonies (not to mention Roberts’ heroic guitar playing) still leave the most hardened musicians slack-jawed.   See Josh solo this glorious evening.

Graham Whorley is a musician known for his soulful mastery of music and looping technology. Graham was born in a small town in Virginia. He soaked up the local gospel, country, jazz, and folk music he heard there and mixed it with the finest rock influences to create his own musical voice. His following has grown organically from local, regional, and then national. Graham performed as a featured artist on stage for Warren Haynes Annual Christmas Jam in Asheville, NC. He has shared the stage over the last several years with Tim Reynolds of Dave Matthews Band, Michael Glabicki of Rusted Root, New Riders of The Purple Sage, Lee Oskar of WAR, Members of The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Colonel Bruce Hampton, and Brock Butler, Delbert McClinton, Keller Williams, and Dumpstaphunk to name a few.

Twenty-year- old Haley Mae Campbell is well on her way to becoming one of Music Row’s shining new stars. Her recent single, “Lose My Number,” peaked as a #5 pre-order on the iTunes Country Chart and debuted at #43 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Chart. She’s received local and regional radio airplay and even been named the 2016 Independent Tone Awards’ “Country Artist of the Year” as well as “Female Singer/Songwriter of the Year” by the 93.7 Locals Only show, all in support of her previous EP, Phone Home. At once playful and determined, Campbell is ready to knock down doors as she continues her ascent to stardom; however, she insists she’ll never lose sight of why she chose to make music in the first place. Says Campbell: “My music is a reflection of my life experience and it comes from the heart. With every song, the goal in mind is to take the listener on a journey, paint them a picture and involve them in the story. I think that is truly what makes music special – when it can transport you to a different state of mind.”

Not long after moving to Charleston, SC in June of 2015, Hans met up with guitarist Chris Fulmer at an all original open mic night called "Holy City Confessionals", held at Home Team BBQ in West Ashley, Charleston, SC. From that time on, the two worked tirelessly to write new material and form a full working band. The band has defined an edgy, vocally driven ensemble that embodies the true definition of story telling. With infinite inspiration from haunting tales of heroism, loss, love and personal growth in historic Charleston, SC, the group has quickly amassed a body of work that will draw you in to the old cobblestone laden, foggy backstreets of the South.

Lindsay Holler sings and plays guitar. her voice moves onto the sidewalk through a cracked upstairs window on dusky afternoons. it smells you with its tongue, pensively considers, and strikes. In clubs and theatres - its the same. On some occasions it caresses; other times accuses. When amplified it can be seen on the air ... then we all drown. Holler lives in Charleston, South Carolina. She hails the South as home and has lived in New Orleans and New York; she studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston. The music's current state of evolution is supported by a little twang and a little late-night clarity. The new EP, Helltembre, contains six originals, each displaying Hollers succinct penwomanship, which treads the trammels of broken relations and lost love. With the addition of Nick Jenkins on drums, Sam Sfirri on piano and percussion, Bill Carson on guitar, and Ben Wells on bass, they have created a sound fusing americana with gritty textures and dark lyrics.  Holler cites influences from the likes of Tom Waits, Gram Parsons, Nina Simone and Neil Young - preferring genre straddlers, categorical misfits and indefinables.

Guilt Ridden Troubadour stands on the songwriting of Reid Stone to cohesively achieve a psychedelic roots rock sound. Coming up in the idyllic town of Oxford, Miss., his Southern twang is no surprise. Band Members Reid Stone, Jeff Davis, Whitt Algar, Ryan Bonner, and Jack Friel ham up some of your favorite covers as well as deliver intense originals at every performance...morning, noon, or night.

Skribe travels from town to town in a blue hearse spreading their own blend of garage folk: a soulful sound that draws from roots Americana & the 60's garage spirit. The bands' latest release 'Postcards' rumbles & creaks from the blues punk growl of 'Mayonnaise & Honey' to the Hawaiian lapsteel laced ballad 'Strangers' - a tribute to The Kinks.

Andrea and Mud sound like a panther screaming in the middle of the night, like a band of gypsies at a tea party, like a carefully curated hullabaloo held in a Wild West funeral home. Like Doc Watson and the Cramps had a love child while watching a Tarantino movie. Just as much influenced by Willie Nelson, Tom Waits, and Hank Williams Sr. as new Country acts such as Colter Wall and the Deslondes, Colburn & Moseley keep somewhat of a traditional country and blues feel all while giving it their own haunting, part Piedmont, part Psychobilly spin. If you’ve ever wondered what it would have been like if Bonnie and Clyde had started a Honky Tonk band with drippy tremolo surf guitar instead of taking the criminal path, this is a performance that you don’t want to miss.

Frog people unite!  Join us for the triumphant return to Sullivan's Island of Folly Beach's favorite sons, BIG STONER CREEK.

Gutter country, jazz and swing cut with booze drenched chainsaw rock n roll.

Perhaps the only working musician in the world who's resume includes walking 3200 miles across America, Nashville based artist Matt Vrba has added yet another accomplishment onto his already impressive list, the release of his fifth commercial album, "Lessons Learned". Since the release of his first album (Everywhere In Between) in 2004, Vrba has criss-crossed America and Europe dozens of times, logging over 2400 shows at venues ranging from a sold-out performance at Chicago’s House Of Blues, and LA's famed Viper Room, to huge festivals such as The North Beach Festival in San Francisco, and The Bite of Seattle.

Well Charged, a reggae, rocksteady, and ska band based out of Charleston SC. formed over a shared love for vintage reggae and Jamaican rhythms. Drummer John Picard estimates that he and bassist Vasily Punsalan have been playing together for 17 years, with their style delivering a faithful nod to the early pioneers of Caribbean music - Alton Ellis, Desmond Dekker, and Prince Buster.  Already voted Best Charleston Reggae Band by the City Paper, their presence is welcomed.

Tragedy has a way of upending even the most stable trajectory. The Kenny George Band knows that fact first hand. After last year’s sudden death of the band’s original drummer Bucky Brown, the group was faced with some hard choices, including the difficult decision about whether the band should even persevere. Consequently, they chose to transition the only way they knew how -- to keep on making music. Songs that had been sketched out with Bucky were re-tuned, using Brown’s original tracks while rerecording the other instruments to give it a fresher, cleaner sound. Those four songs plus a wholly original track recorded with new drummer Dave Mercer were combined for a new EP they dubbed The Silent Saint.

“Who are we, and where do we go from here?” These were the questions on the minds of Kelly and Patrick Morris in late 2016. After bringing to an end a long but successful two and a half year tour, playing venues and music halls from small to large from coast to coast including festivals such as SXSW (twice), Midpoint Music Festival, Sweetwater 420 fest to name a few, and recording a live session with Daytrotter. Garnering new fans and attention from various press outlets along the way they averaged over 250 shows a year all in support of their 2014 debut release “Walking With A Different Stride.” See Kelly Morris solo on this date in West Ashley history.

Take one seasoned, bucolic folk artist and mix him with the likes of Ray Lamontagne, crossed with all the poetic feels of Bob Dylan’s early recordings. You might find someone that’s been working tirelessly for the last decade, rediscovering himself and expanding the conversation of Americana. ​Enter Whetherman, the music of 33 year-old independent troubadour Nicholas Williams, who has self-produced eight full-length albums since beginning the project in 2007. By artfully bridging the gap between folk, blues, country, soul, and bluegrass with a timeless tinge, Williams is earning his keep amongst the vast pool of independent American talent in the Americana scene. His songs aim at the heart center, emboldened by the moral struggles of modern man with earnest and poetic lyrics that accompany infectiously melodic vocals, under the current of percussive guitar and rolling harmonica. These factors all contribute towards an effervescent, rustic sound that is all his own. ​

Guilt Ridden Troubadour stands on the songwriting of Reid Stone to cohesively achieve a psychedelic roots rock sound. Coming up in the idyllic town of Oxford, Miss., his Southern twang is no surprise. Band Members Reid Stone, Jeff Davis, Whitt Algar, Ryan Bonner, and Jack Friel ham up some of your favorite covers as well as deliver intense originals at every performance...morning, noon, or night.

The members are Krystal Halvorson (vocals, guitar, banjo), Mike Sparks (lead Guitar), John Auwearter (bass), Scott Tucker (drums) and Mark Yampolsky (vocals, guitar, mandolin, principle songwriter). Forty Mile Detour has been performing their unique sound playing everywhere from craft beer houses to concert halls in the Lowcountry of South Carolina and in Nashville. “We love getting the opportunity to share our music” says Mark, “It is gratifying to see that our music is connecting with so many people.” Forty Mile Detour plays their music from the heart, creating a sound that is true to the American spirit, the open road and the American dream.

Lindsay Holler sings and plays guitar. her voice moves onto the sidewalk through a cracked upstairs window on dusky afternoons. it smells you with its tongue, pensively considers, and strikes. In clubs and theatres - its the same. On some occasions it caresses; other times accuses. When amplified it can be seen on the air ... then we all drown. Holler lives in Charleston, South Carolina. She hails the South as home and has lived in New Orleans and New York; she studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston. The music's current state of evolution is supported by a little twang and a little late-night clarity. The new EP, Helltembre, contains six originals, each displaying Hollers succinct penwomanship, which treads the trammels of broken relations and lost love. With the addition of Nick Jenkins on drums, Sam Sfirri on piano and percussion, Bill Carson on guitar, and Ben Wells on bass, they have created a sound fusing americana with gritty textures and dark lyrics.  Holler cites influences from the likes of Tom Waits, Gram Parsons, Nina Simone and Neil Young - preferring genre straddlers, categorical misfits and indefinables.

In July of 2018, Red Cedar Review released their debut album, "The Highway".  A mix of traditional bluegrass standards alongside guitarist/vocalist Brad Edwardson's original songs. Recording the bulk of the album in one live session, they create an energy that invites the listener into the stories Edwardson weaves into his songwriting.

A West Ashley tradition on the night before Thanksgiving?  A rock'n funky country show sounds like the ticket! Charleston musical fixtures... Michael Grimm (guitar), Ben Edwards (bass), Scott Price (drums), Johnny Puke (vocals), and Charlie Thompson (pedal steel and electric guitar)... take their turn with Honky tonk, rock and roll and traditional country & western classics, paying tribute to the likes of Hank Williams, George Jones, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, Faron Young, and Stonewall Jackson.

THESE THINGS SHALL PASS' is the tenth full-album release from Memphis-area musician Davis Coen, and fulfills his long-standing goal of recording an entire spiritual-based album. The album nods to a wide range of classic song selections, spanning from time-tested traditional American hymns, such as “What A Friend We Have In Jesus” and “Old Rugged Cross,” to classic gospel radio cuts as Willie Banks and the Messengers’ “Working For Jesus,” and the title cut, Stuart Hamblen’s “These Things Shall Pass,” famously covered by country music legends Hank Snow and Johnny Cash. The album also has six original songs, including light-hearted duets “Saint Christopher” and “Jesus’ Hand,” with former Billy Joe Shaver guitarist Patrick McClary from Jackson, MS vocally accompanying Coen. It was recorded at Sand Dog Studios in Batesville, MS, and co-produced by the album’s drummer Ryan Rogers and Coen. Coen’s recordings are strongly rooted in blues, country and religious-based music. He characterizes his style as ‘contemporary country-blues’…a modern culmination of the hodgepodge of musical influences absorbed from living in the Mid-Southern U.S. and continual touring. He has played festivals, clubs, and bars throughout the U.S. for over twenty years, and has been billed repeat- edly at world-renowned Mid-South regional events such as King Biscuit Blues Festival in Helena, AR and Juke Joint Festival in the Mississippi Delta. Davis has also enjoyed a dozen blues circuit tours of Europe, sharing bills with R.L. Burnside, Koko Taylor, Big Jack Johnson, David “Honeyboy” Edwards & Bo Diddley. He’s also headlined on more diversified festival bills with Wynton Marsalis, Leon Russell, Bonnie Raitt, Tito Puente, Toots & the Maytals, Richie Havens, Mountain & Eric Burdon.
