The South by Southeast Music Feast is a local non-profit/charitable organization formed in 2003 by a group of Myrtle Beach, SC area music lovers and educators to preserve and promote American music not usually heard in traditional venues.

     Our mission is to provide assistance and support to local music education programs, with our goal being to offset some costs associated with the musical education of young people in our area. In this time of budget cuts and strangulation of funding for the arts, our goal is to help young people in their pursuit of the joys of music.

 

Recent donations to the Myrtle Beach Middle School Orchestra and Dr. David Bankston's Guitars in the Classroom project are examples of the programs that we have and will continue to support.

 

South by Southeast's membership is comprised of local and out-of-town residents. With the help of our partner, New South Brewery, we have been able to stage very small, intimate concerts featuring an incredible and vast array of musicians and entertainers. Our "music feasts" are staged at various venues every eight to ten weeks.

 

An optional "Bring A Dish" dinner opens each event. Some food and beverages are provided by the organization for each show, but we feel it is important to retain the "Potluck Dish" aspect of our first "Living Room" shows. This custom is completely voluntary and by no means mandatory, and should not deter those from attending our events. We greatly appreciate all the fine food we have been blessed with at our shows.

 

Admission to the shows is comprised of a paid membership and a ticket. Tickets are available for each show to members at the current price of $20 for adults and $10 for those under 21. For information on obtaining a membership, please visit our Membership Page.

 

Please come enjoy our shows. It's always a wonderful time and supports a great cause.

 

Thanks for supporting live music and music education!
