April Newsletter
/Spring is in the air!
When the weather heats up and it's time for the ladies to break out their sundresses and the men to break out their shorts from long months of winter storage, things get busy around the EFM office as we plan for all the amazing music events we have in store for you fine folks of Charleston. Rather than recoil in shock in the face of the busiest time of the year, we embrace it wholeheartedly as we put together some of the most anticipated events of the spring and summer seasons. Here is a little sneak preview of the things yet to come:
Chatham County Line at the Woolfe Street Playhouse
First and foremost, we are thrilled to have Chatham County Line back to Charleston to play another captivating show at the most intimate venue in town, the Woolfe Street Playhouse. This is the perfect place to bring your date, your kids, your whole family, or the whole crew of rowdy music lovers to enjoy some top-notch tunes. This is extra exciting because the show happens to fall on EFM Team Leader Rob Lamble's birthday, so company morale will be even higher than usual (if that is even possible). Be sure to buy your tickets here ahead of time and lock down your spot in the building. You're not going to want to miss this one.

The official schedule is here and we couldn't be more ready to rock out in the sand with 3,000 of our closest friends. Our highlight of the summer is helping make this event the highlight of yours. Are you sitting down? Brace yourselves, this lineup is stacked.
