    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Sound engineer, drummer, and songwriter Jason Mcfarland was born in New York City in 1973. He has lived in the Lowcountry since the 1980s. His earliest music memories are related to Joyce Kilmer Park in the South Bronx, where every Saturday, bands like Chic or Talking Heads used to play. Additionally, he saw legendary musicians such as The Jackson 5 and James Brown at the Apollo Theater where his cousin worked as a sound engineer. These early experiences were enriched by the Gospel and Funk sounds of Awendaw. Later, he attended Wando High School and was a member of the marching band.  In the interview, Mcfarland talks about the origin of his first band, Funny Looking Kids, and explains how young musicians worked to find opportunities to play before the internet era. He reflects about punk culture and states that Black Flag, Bad Brains and the Descendents were his most influential artists. He affirms that touring with Fishbone was one of the most memorable and remarkable experiences of his career. He recalls the Charleston music scene in the 1980s and 1990s, naming the music venues, record stores, and bars that congregated musicians and students in the city. Mcfarland is proud of his multifaceted career as a sound engineer and as a musician, which gives him multiple opportunities to enjoy great music. At the time of the interview, McFarland was playing with two bands, Funny Looking Kids and Hybrid Mutants.<br />

I&#039;m the bass.”  She performs with her own band, AmpSquared, and several others such as Super Deluxe, Plane Jane, and the musician collective Emerald Empire.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Musician and educator Mervin Antonio Jenkins, also known as Spec the Spectacular for his talent at rhyming and freestyle, was born in Eutawville, South Carolina in 1972. He is the first child of Mary, a schoolteacher, and Melvin Jenkins, an auto mechanic worker. It was in his father’s garage that Jenkins listened to Run DMC, &quot;Sucker MC&#039;s&quot; for the first time. Later, he would learn more about rap music and culture with his cousin from New York. In the interview, Jenkins reflects on his career as a musician and as an educator who uses rap to engage young people. He shares the challenges and rewards of his career, stating that recording with Big Daddy Cane was one of his proudest moments. He discusses the evolution of rap music and its styles and names his favorite artists. When asked about a particular Charleston/Carolinas sound, he argues that the Carolinas never developed their own rap sound and style because it was not functional for the music industry. At the end of the interview, he performs “War of the Worlds” and freestyles, responding to the audience prompts.<br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Musician, educator, and community leader Lonnie Hamilton III was born in Charleston in 1927. He is a graduate of South Carolina State College and VanderCook College of Music in Chicago. In the interview, Hamilton reflects about growing up and developing his career in the segregated South since his beginnings at Burke High and the Jenkins Orphanage Band. He speaks about his long and gratifying career as an educator, teaching music at Sims High School in Union, South Carolina and at Bonds-Wilson High School in North Charleston, South Carolina, and the many relationships he forged with his students over the years.  He talks about the highlights of his performing career: playing daily on Channel 2, attaining the dream to have his own club, Lonnie’s, his successful years playing at Henry’s on North Market Street, and having the opportunity to compose an original song, “Ugly Way Blues” that he performed for the movie Rich in Love. Hamilton recalls the excitement he felt when he listened to jazz music for the first time in a show called Silas Green Minstrel in downtown Charleston and describes playing at Mosquito Beach as a unique and wonderful experience.  Hamilton takes pride in his accomplishments, as an educator, as a musician, as a businessperson, and as a City Council member. He affirms he was able to break Charleston’s racial and economic barriers thanks to his saxophone.  <br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Singer and storyteller Ann Caldwell was born in Denmark, South Carolina in 1952. Her family moved to Charleston when she was three years old.  Her early musical memories relate to church music and the long hours she spent listening to gospel and R&amp;B on the radio.  However, her interest in pursuing a professional musical career would develop much later. She was an adult when she had her first solo concert at St. Paul AME Church in the City of North Charleston in 1982. In the interview, Caldwell recalls the challenges of being a working mother and a party band singer as well as her experiences singing with the David Archer Band. She also talks about the Magnolia Singers, a Charleston-based vocal group she founded, which gained national recognition. Caldwell reflects about what it means for her to perform Gullah Spirituals, the music of her ancestors to different audiences. She discusses her participation in programs and events with musicians of different styles and traditions such as the Women &amp; Series at the Music Hall and talks about what it takes to be a working musician in Charleston. Finally, she reflects about the Charleston music community response to the Mother Emanuel tragedy and affirms, “I don’t believe the music has changed. It’s the medicine we lean on. “<br />
