SO ABOUT US....
We are a very happily married unit that when not working for the man have live music addictions that no 12-step program can fix :)
We are always on the go soaking up as much great music as possible. Chris is Publicist/Volunteer Coordinator and Candy is Street Team Coordinator for and wholeheartedly support the mission of the Carolina Live Music Society bringing unsigned and national acts to Charlotte, NC...we're dedicated to exposing Carolinians to artists that you will probably never hear on the radio or see at your local arena...not due to lack of talent but their unwillingness to conform to what record companies expect from their artists... Independent music ROCKS and so does the Carolina Live Music Society .
We hope everyone goes out and supports their local music scene by attending shows by unsigned bands.... go find yourself a diamond in the rough, attend their shows as often as you can, and buy their merchandise. There is a lot of GREAT music right in your backyard....
Peace friends ..
DID YOU KNOW???? 100 million dollars has been taken out of the public education systems in the last 10 years that was once reserved for educating our children in the music arts??? WHAT A F***ING TRAVESTY!!!
