Welcome to the weekend’s run-down of music throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania! We’ve got tribute celebrations, cocktail parties, and excellent musicians from near and far. Make plans around supporting a new band or catching one of your favorite acts from Thirsty Thursday to Sunday Funday.
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
This week’s cover photo: Tremendously talented indie-country artist, Lanie Gardnercloses out the 2024 Rockin’ the River concert series on Friday, July 26. Her cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” went viral and she’s been soaring ever since! Come see her at Nesbitt Park on Friday night in Wilkes-Barre with opening local act, The Broke Pines.
