Music scene · Selma

Selma is a Johnston County town where music has traditionally come through church choirs, high school marching bands, and country acts at local events. The Raleigh area supplies many of the musicians who pass through for suburban and small-town gigs.

Church fellowship halls, the high school auditorium, and the local community center host most performances. A nearby bar or restaurant may feature acoustic or country music, while seasonal festivals use park pavilions.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Raleigh scene occasionally passing through.

Check the community center and church bulletin boards for performance opportunities. The Raleigh metro has a larger pool of gigs and collaborators for musicians willing to make the short drive.
