The Indie Music Grind: Atticus Lane on Touring, Community, and Seneca Burns
On this episode of Local Music Somewhere, Jack sits down with Charlotte-based musician and producer Atticus Lane for an honest conversation about the independent music grind.
Atticus talks about his path from hip-hop and music production to co-building Seneca Burns, a band that sold out its debut show, toured the East Coast, and helped shape a growing music community in the Carolinas. The conversation touches on touring, collaboration, creative momentum, and what’s next — for both the band and Atticus as a producer.

Atticus Lane
Atticus Lane is a Charlotte, NC-based musician who has found a home and family in the band Seneca Burns. Beginning with hip-hop before learning production and transitioning into the band, Atticus spent a few years before covid initiating connections with the independent music community across the Carolinas. In February of 2022, Seneca Burns made its debut with a headline show at the Milestone Club, and against all convention, sold it out and embarked on a 12-day east coast tour just 6 weeks later. The band spent bulk of time between 2022 and 2024 touring and playing extensively before taking a break in 2025. On December 31, 2025, the band subsequently announced intentions to return to a heavy schedule and potentially release their first full-length record in 2026.
In between those priorities, Atticus Lane is a music producer with a budding discography of local acts. In 2025, he worked on a handful of projects and hopes to continue to find and help more upstart bands.
