Each episode explores living and making rent in the historical, and still very active, Memphis music scene. The show is described in MTV's official press release: "$5 Cover is a rough-and-tumble show set in the clubs, all-night cafes and no-tell motels of present-day Memphis. The series follows a cast of young musicians as they fight for love, inspiration, and money to pay the rent." The show aired on MTV as 30-minute episodes and on MTV.com as short webisodes. The show aired with a series of companion documentaries called "$5 Cover Amplified".
