The Music: Local and Live
By Kris Youmans, Special to The Paper
Live music has returned to some stages locally. Some local performers are finally able to get up and away from their computer screens and out to live audiences with new & abundant energy. Because a lot of these are outside events, people feel more comfortable & social distancing & masks are still the norm for ‘most’ folks.
Big Events may return sometime in 2021, but for now the live streams are a great alternative, like The Farm Aid Festival, & Savannah Jazz Festival.
I’ve heard great material from songwriters during this time, new albums, heartfelt lyrics & thoughtful outlooks. Please support local, live music as well as the musicians & bands on live streams. It’s all good- music is a powerful healer.
Here’s contacts, links & shows for some of the musicians in the area:
