SC Artist Development is a concept created by the collective visions of Kris Kaylin, Jordan Sprueill, & Mike Brown. Starting in 2023, they formed SC Artist Development as a service to help artist build themselves, their brands, and aid in the preparation of educating artists. Everything from vocal lessons and creative writing, to interview etiquette and stage presence. An outstanding concept that is a true representation of ‘your netWORK being your netWORTH’.
Some of Charleston’s most influential and connected people are offering the resources and platform to really help creatives thrive and thrive in community. Their live music review show, The Listening Party, has been the driving force behind creating the space for local artists to play their music in front of a group of highly experienced creatives, artists, musicians, etc.
Every Monday-Kris, Jordan, and Mike are joined with a rotating cast of people that give honest, thorough, and constructive criticism to anyone that submits their music. They listen, review, and film The Listening Party live at Blue Note Bistro and stream the show live on Facebook and Instagram via their Facebook pages and The SC Artist Development IG page. They’ve recently took the platform a step further by incorporating Mix n Melodies which is a live show featuring artists that are on the SCAD radar.
I was blessed to be one of three artists to perform at their first event of the year in February 28th. BluFlame James and Starr Queen, also hit the stage with the backing of DJ Huncho and The Greg Lonely Experience (band). The high energy and genuine, mutual support of The Listening Party squad, translated in realtime as Blue Note Bistro was filled with music, networking, dancing, laughter, and community.
With all this being said, SC Artist Development is a true #GxldApproved vision. Dedicated to elevating and showcasing the immense amount of talent in South Carolina!
