In episode 12 of the Savannah Jams Podcast, titled “The Problem with Slow Gig Nights,” we dive into one of the most persistent challenges facing local musicians: those painfully slow Sunday-through-Wednesday gigs. Joining us for this candid and insightful conversation are two longtime friends and powerhouse singer-songwriters—Kari Greenway, known for her Americana, classic rock, and pop stylings, and Cyril Durant, who blends alternative rock, jazz, and pop with ease. Adding her voice via pre-written notes is country artist CC Witt, offering her signature blend of honest, boots-on-the-ground perspective. Together, we unpack the factors that lead to sluggish turnout on early-week nights—think seasonal slumps, poor promotion, bad timing, and tricky locations—and brainstorm practical, creative solutions like open mics, artist showcases, and more collaborative promotion. It’s an episode full of real talk, a little venting, and a lot of heart.
