Checking in

Well, I'm sorry for not posting more often on this blog. I suppose it hasn't been a valuable resource to the bluegrass community in and around Charleston, for that reason. Anyhow, I'm here today and thinking I should pass along a couple of updates I'm aware of regarding the local scene.

Home Team BBQ expanded it's operation to include a Sullivan's Island location. I know they have a bluegrassy sort of thing going on out there nearly every week. Check their site for details.

There's a fairly new place on James Island called the Smokey Oak Taproom. They've had some local bluegrass acts in there regularly as well. The grub is good too, so check it out sometime.

The Pour House on James Island has some bluegrassy stuff on the deck Thursday nights, 6-9, as well as other days and nights of the week. Keep an eye on their website.

Dunleavy's is always fun on Tuesday nights with Bob Sachs and his musical entourage. They usually start around 7:30 pm.

The Folly Beach Bluegrass Society is still meeting on Thursdays at 7. I believe they're now at the Crab Shack.

I've head a lot of good things about Awendaw Green over on the north side of Mount Pleasant. Sounds like a really supportive community thing going on over there. Check it out.

Alrighty, I'll catch you on the flip side.

River Boy: acoustic, bluegrassy music - for the people!

Is a year & a half too long to get a record produced? Well, maybe. But it's been a learning experience (for me anyway). And, I think everyone involved is pleased with the results. So, check it out! www.RiverBoyMusic.com
