I don't know about you, but there is something about the warmer weather and push toward spring that makes me crave live music. That itch has been getting bad lately, so I did a little investigating into the Charleston music scene to see what the coming months had in store. Results were pleasing my friends, very pleasing.

Here's a list of the best of the best that will be headed into town in the upcoming months (I've added stars beside the shows that I think are going to be absolutely killer:)
