about
Scene Trash Magazine is a regional monthly print magazine. What that means is, every month or so a dozen really cute girls write a whole bunch of articles about East Coast Unsigned Bands, then we proceed to print, fold and staple said articles into magazine form. Then we sell them online and at shows. Get the idea?In addition to this swell magazine we run, we're also Scene Trash Promotions. What that means is we make flyers, banners, layouts, and anything else our bands need for free, to help them out in any way possible. Once in a while we'll book some shows, sell some tickets, and each year we have the annual Scene Trash Awards, which is ever so popular amongst the kids.
We are currently looking to expand and coming up with a bunch of innovative ideas to help out and connect the local scene. We're always looking to do something new.
history
Scene Trash started in April 2006 by Christine after the success of her 16th birthday, and her street team experience. She acquired the help of several girls in the Baltimore and surrounding areas and produced 5 issues. In September 2006, after numerous staff changes, there was some re-evaluation of the direction the magazine was going in.Scene Trash took a four month haitus during Fall of 2006 then kicked back off in 2007 with a double cover featuring The Hint & Maylen. Over two years later, Scene Trash has done dozens of interviews & reviews and we are approaching our twentieth issue, and we have a stable group of talented girls writing and promoting for us, in addition to a brand new crop of girls from all over the East Coast helping us out!
faqs
How can I apply to be on the staff?Currently, we are not looking for staff members.
How do we become a supported band?
We don't add bands often but we have a list of bands that aren't supported that we have our eye on to see what they're up to. Drop us a message using our contact page, and we'll keep you in mind next time we're looking for some new bands. We do have a six month rule, however. What this means, is you have to have a stable lineup and be playing shows for at least six months before you can become a supported band. Some exceptions have been made, but not usually.
Can you get us shows?
Put is simply, at the moment, no. If you check out links page there's a list of venues, and people with contact information. Start there.
Do you ship internationally?
Yep! At no extra cause, just order as normal on our order page :)
