South Carolina musicians – here’s your chance to play a Tiny Desk Concert at NPR in Washington, D.C., appear at a taping of NPR’s Ask Me Another, and tour the United States with NPR and Lagunitas!

The Tiny Desk Contest winner will perform with local Contest entrants at Lagunitas Taprooms across the country, including Charleston, South Carolina.
