Riassunto:

Under the Table and Screaming is a multi-volume series exploring the history and legacy of the local music scene in Charlottesville, VA. From literally underground shows in DIY basements, to the racially suppressed hip-hop scene, to thriving roots music on woodsy back porches, to elegant recitals in restored theaters, UTTaS presents a full and diverse picture of this incredibly musical city, still largely known nationally as the home of Dave Matthews.

In volume five, local journalist and radio DJ Erin O'Hare tells the story of Magnolia House, The Southern Café and Music Hall, and The Bridge Progressive Arts Initiative. For years, all three venues-especially Magnolia and The Bridge-welcomed the genres and crowds that otherwise had little space in Charlottesville, from punk to hip-hop to goth to out-there experimental. And The Southern, though linked to the commercial music business, has often used its resources and bigger platform to boost the profile of local acts and support ongoing community traditions.

Recommended for those who like multi-band shows on Halloween with costumes encouraged, learning about the most wholesome and hard-core DIY punk crowd around, or eating grilled cheeses made by rubber pigeons while computer music plays.

Informazioni sull'autore: Erin O'Hare is a writer, equity reporter, and rock DJ from Charlottesville, VA. She writes about peoples and cultures left out of mainstream narratives, including independent and DIY music scenes (like punk and hip-hop), Black female muralists, seed savers, low-profile jazz legends, Aboriginal Australian photographers, Native American tribes fighting for federal recognition, night-shift workers, and bizarre guerilla art. Regularly writing for hyper-local nonprofit newsroom Charlottesville Tomorrow, Erin has also contributed to Women in Sound, Bandcamp Daily, C-VILLE Weekly, and The Australian.
