You’re Invited to a Badass Twangville Showcase!

Tuesday, February 14, 2012 By Mayer Danzig

Yup, you read it right. The Twangville posse is headed to Columbia, South Carolina. And being a music site, our visit wouldn’t be complete without a show. So we’ve made arrangements to take over Columbia’s New Brookland Tavern and invited some of our favorite artists to join us for a raucous night of rock & roll.

Check out this badass line-up:

Lydia Loveless

Do you live in Columbia? Can you get to Columbia? Then come join us! In fact, we’ll make it easy for ‘ya. We’re giving away two pairs of tickets. To win, post a comment with the name of the appearing artist that you’re most excited to see. Winners will be selected at random when the contest ends on Tuesday, 21 February 2012 at midnight ET.**

Special thanks to Lydia Loveless, Mooncussers and Kasey Anderson for making the trip to join us and for American Gun for being our gracious hosts. We’re looking forward to a great night of music!
