Close out March with extra-special performances across Northeastern Pennsylvania. Although some venues will be closed for Easter Sunday, that doesn’t mean you can’t get out to see some excellent live music this holiday weekend!
All events listed in no particular order.
This week’s cover photo: James Barrett, multi-talented local musician and founder of Good Things Are Happening Fest, headlines The Ritz Theater in Scranton on Saturday, March 30. He’ll be joined by special guests Jimmy Montague and The Tisburys.
