Daniel Island

The first day of the Southern Ground Music & Food Festival featured great sets by AJ Ghent, Dawes, Natalie Maines, and a cover-heavy set by the Zac Brown Band

The Zac Brown Band returns to Daniel Island this weekend with an impressive pack of pals (like Willie Nelson, Band of Horses, and The Head & The Heart). Here are my top picks for the two-day show...

What did last weekend's Panic show with a crowd of thousands and a local house concert with a crowd of two-dozen have in common? Lots, actually. And if you were in that crowd—you were part of it

Have a ticket to next weekend's Wine, Women & Shoes? With vendors like C. Wonder, shoe models including Tara, Chassity, and Natalie, and proceeds supporting a SC nonprofit, you won't want to miss it

This is one blog I am very glad to be writing this in past tense... Trust me, I can't make this she/it up

What do men REALLY want? I've got an all-star (sort of...) panel of dads to tell you—hilarious answers, and some useful ones too (hints: beer, music, homemade stuff, beer, done)

The summer 2013 music scene is STOCKED with must-see shows (The Lumineers, Fun., The Killers, etc.). Find these—plus best-bet venues, the Grit team's summer playlist picks, and a badass boombox—here!

Recently, I learned that my father—the biggest Dylan fan I know—had never seen the singer live. That is, until I took him to Saturday night's show on DI. Here's a rundown of the show and set list

Somehow I was able to score an interview with Chef Rusty, the executive chef for the Zac Brown Band and the Southern Ground Music and Food Festival, and in less than 10 minutes, I was wooed.

My play-by-play rundown (including photos!) of Saturday's Southern Ground opening day, from the complainers in line to a run-in with Zac Brown to the madcap musicians onstage... Wow.

I spoke with Zac Brown Band's Clay Cook about his musical roots (which include having—already—played in five huge acts), his pal John Mayer, Home Team BBQ, and what's in store for this weekend

This weekend's Southern Ground Music and Food Festival promises tasty fare and even tastier music. Here's a rundown of what to expect from the show's stacked lineup

This weekend, Zac Brown will bring back the Southern Ground Music and Food Festival for a second year—and it looks to me like they've stepped up the line-up. Here's a quick preview

Saturday night was a great time to be a 90s alt-rock fan here in Charleston. A recap of Last Summer on Earth at Family Circle Stadium, including the Barenaked Ladies wearing their tennis whites

With the Last Summer on Earth tour here and as a proud and balding member of Gen X, I've got hard-core nostalgia for genre giants like Drivin N' Cryin, Cracker, BNL, and even the old gang at 96 Wave
