What's brewing? CL's local CD Homebrew
For years, I've always known that people are reticent to support music that they don't know. They'll shell out $5 on a beer or $10 on a movie, but when it comes to going to a concert, they hesitate to spend the money. In 2008, I decided to try my best to help the local music scene and get more people to become aware of the music being created around them in Charlotte. Instead of just writing about it, I wanted to get music into the hands of more people ... and the Homebrew CD series was born. Read more.

A quick Homebrew recap
Here's a quick little video - a look back at the Homebrew release party at the Neighborhood Theatre on Friday, Oct. 15. We gave out 600 CDs (for free) to all of those in attendance. The party included performances by Bubonik Funk, Electric Coma, Mike Strauss Band, Matrimony, The Isaac Spiveys, Wiggle Wagons and Grown Up Avenger Stuff.

Thanks to all that came out!
