Having recently spent three days near Fenway Park, I’ve discovered that Boston seems to be a real music town. The Berklee College of Music obviously provides a wealth of well-trained musicians out there, and its roster of grads speaks for itself. That makes for a thriving local music scene.
According to my buddy Kit Holliday, a local singer, the venues by-and-large treat the local acts well. There also seems to be a genuine appreciation for music there. If you live in or visit Boston, you should be so lucky as to hear Kit sing live. I’ve only heard recordings, but I would’ve loved to see her live. Maybe next time!
And unlike Phoenix, there is a thriving music retail scene. It ain’t just Guitar Center.
Last note for now: The Guitar Lessons for Art series will soon resume!
