Remember that time LeBron James was in high school and everyone was like, this guy is the next big thing?  Remember that time Kobe Bryant got drafted by the Charlotte Hornets and everyone was like this guy is the next big thing?  And then they traded him for Vlade Divac.

Well we do, and we are looking for the next big band in South Carolina.  We have a lot of good bands around right now, but we need some excitement and we want to find some of the best new bands and up-and-coming talent out there.

So here is the deal.

Submissions must include one sample mp3, a website (can be Myspace, Facebook etc), and a small bio.

Email submissions to music@scenesc.com with NEXT BIG THING and your band/artist name in the subject line.
