Although it may not look like barbecue weather for this long holiday weekend, it’s always live music weather! There’s plenty of outstanding live entertainment across our local towns to play you through this Memorial Day Weekend.
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
Cover Photo of the Week: Sensational local singer-songwriter, Tori V will play three solo shows this weekend. Tori Viccica is the frontwoman of her band Tori V & The Karma who just released a new song and music video this May called “Ruby.” She’s an extremely talented singer and guitarist and shows off her skills throughout NEPA and beyond.
See her live this weekend at Grotto Pizza on Harvey’s Lake on Thursday, May 22, Grotto Pizza Wilkes-Barre on Friday, May 23, and then finally III Guys Pizza in Mountaintop on Saturday, May 24.
