Andy Frasco Brings Positivity To The QC: Records On The Wall Exclusive
Andy Frasco has had a busy 18 months. When the world shut down last March, the piano player, singer and band leader, who’s played 250 shows a year for nearly 15 years, kept going.

Seph Dot, Spanish Love Songs, The Hovis House: RF20XX’s Music Wrap – 3/15 to 3/21
Happy New Week, CLT Scene & Beyond! Driving and walking around the city during the previous year was a lot like pacing in front of a movie set; with no ability to enter favorite locales, the inviting outsides of venues might as well had been cardboard cutouts, only a reminder of the real sides of…

TINO, Dollar Signs, SADRIDEHOME: RF20XX’s Music Wrap – 3/8 to 3/14
What’s going on, CLT Scene & Beyond? Hard to believe we’re already at the halfway point in March, but as the warmth returns, so does more of the outdoor sound. Most of the country still keeps to masks & social-distancing, but the industry has had a year to learn & reinvent, and music posters are…

CLT Area Spotlight w/ The Penitentials Self-Titled EP – 12/11/2020
Like with many of us at the beginning of March, April 3rd wasn’t much of a thought, aside from the idea that it, like many of the weekends at a local venue here in CLT, it’d be business as usual for musicians and fans; go in, heat up, and live loud to both new &…
