~ Highlights: The Sebastian Story & Gods and Generals ~ In which we meet celebrities, are honored to play at numerous important National Park Service and reenactment events, record in a famous New York studio, are quartered in 'the fanciest tent we ever slept in', and appear in a 'major motion picture' ! Wow ! Didn't see THAT comin' !!!
August 5th, 2024, will mark the 35th anniversary of the first time the 2nd South Carolina String Band played together at a living history event held at Ft. Warren, on George's Island, in Boston Harbor. To celebrate, we are pleased to present a mini 'documentary' in 4 parts. A spontaneous, unscripted video interview, taped in July of 2018, it is a fond look back at our origins and some of the memorable people, places, and events which we were blessed to have been a part over the past thirty years.
Part 1, "So, it wasn't, like, a plan..." will release Saturday, July 6th, at 8 am. Parts 2, 3, and 4 will release on successive Saturdays through July 27th. We hope you will drop in and check them out. The full video will be available to view on August 5th, the actual anniversary of the band's founding.
It’s a fine day for a new release ! “Jenny Get Your Hoecake Done”. Recorded at the 150th Anniversary Battle of Gettysburg reenactment, in July of 2013. Today, June 8, 2024, at 6:00 pm !
Without further ado, over-blown hyperbole, pomp or circumstance, here's some items that should be showing up very soon (maybe even today) under our videos in the "2SCSB Store". 4 Tees, available in 5 colors, featuring a period-style image of the group captured at the 140th Gettysburg event in 2003. Better late than never, I reckon...
On the eve of St. Patrick's Day, we are proud to debut two versions of our favorite Irish reel, recorded 13 years apart. The first, on Labor Day weekend, 1999, in Gettysburg, the second at the 2013 Gettysburg 150th reenactment.
