Greenville’s own MAC MCCLOUD has brought us “MY HEART IS SINKING,” six songs of sizzlin’ snappy blues, in-stock now on CD at Horizon Records
Mac has struck gold with a long-overdue new release from one of its own favorite sons. MAC MCCLOUD’s deeply personal new solo effort, My Heart is Sinking is more than rocket science; it’s the blues. It’s Mac’s first album since 2002, and he sounds better than ever. What we got here is six songs split…

Well, Greenville and neighbors near and far, this has been (and is still rollin’ steady) a real treat and a blessing of a Record Store Day ; so much love it’s hard to process, so many nice peoples, a GREAT set from the awe inspiring Tyler Ramsey. Good food and vibe from The Bohemian Cafe,…

NEW RELEASES, 4/19: THE YAWPERS, CAGE THE ELEPHANT, THE ROLLING STONES, TECH N9NE, WYNTON MARSALIS and more!
Through their first three albums, The Yawpers divined a signature style—what Pitchfork described as “an expansive vision of rock ‘n’ roll, one that cherrypicks from various folk traditions: punk, rockabilly, blues, whatever they might have on hand or find in the trash.” The sound is a front-heavy, groovy, fire & brimstone punk-blues overlying a dynamic…

MOUNTAINWALKER (aka AARON BERG), WASTED WINE and J. MICHAEL KING bring some cosmic mystic Americana hip-hop, world-music exotica and down-home folk-blues to the RADIO ROOM on Sunday, April 14th!
Graham Parsons once called what he did, “cosmic American music,” and that’s a good fit for Mountainwalker, as well, even if it ain’t country-rock by a long stretch. There’s hip-hop here, there’s poetry, there are jazz-influenced time changes and folk-style intimacy, there’s hushed soul and fiery anger and wounded hearts and above all else, damn…

Thanks to TYLER RAMSEY for stopping by on RECORD STORE DAY to play songs from For The Morning, his first album in seven years, and to help us ring in RSD 2019 in The Bohemian Cafe!
Our Record Store Day festivities got kicked up a notch with an in-store performance from TYLER RAMSEY, who regaled us with tunes from For The Morning, his first new album in seven years. The long-awaited new record, out now on CD and vinyl LP,

NEW RELEASES, 4/12 (aka pre-Record Store Day): SHOVELS & ROPE, SUN KIL MOON, WIDESPREAD PANIC, ANDERSON PAAK, BRUCE HORNSBY, BUDOS BAND and more!
The Budos Band have spent the last 15 years slowly-but-surely adding elements of proto-metal to their groove-drenched instrumental Afrobeat. 2014’s Burnt Offering feels like a confession of sorts, the band copping to their stoned-teenager proclivities by giving the album a grim title, artwork depicting a

NEW RELEASES, 4/5: LEE FIELDS & THE EXPRESSIONS, THE INFAMOUS STRINGDUSTERS, TYLER RAMSEY, PRIESTS and KENDRICK SCOTT ORACLE all in the house!
Old soul practitioners who are still alive, well and touring are getting mighty scarce these days. In the last few years, we’ve lost Aretha, Sharon Jones and Charles Bradley, to name a few. That leaves Al Green, Aaron Neville, Mavis Staples and …. Lee Fields, plus some others, to keep that gritty spark alive, at…

NEW RELEASES, 3/29: STEVE EARLE, JOSHUA REDMAN, MAX RICHTER, SON VOLT, UNCLE WALT’S BAND, ROBERT NIGHTHAWK, WHITECHAPEL and more!
It was inevitable that Steve Earle would eventually pay tribute to one of two his major mentors, Guy Clark, having done the same for Townes Van Zandt ten years ago. On Guy, Earle and his newly recast band, The Dukes, deliver 16 Clark tunes, both the well-known and relatively obscure in heartfelt, admirable style. As…

LIVE JAZZ in Greenville is a good thing, y’all, and that’s what KEVIN KORSCHGEN’s “WHEEL SESSIONS” is all about. Next up: The Keith Davis Trio on March 28th!
Mr. Gene talks about the Wheel Sessions: “Saw one of the best music evenings in many moons and in a stunningly focused audience listening mode at Wheel Sessions in their really comfy performance space called Underground Music (or sometimes at Greenville UU). The irrepressible and amazing Ignacio Berroa lead 4 top Carolina musicians in 2…
