The Best of Baltimore

In April 2008, Rolling Stone Magazine named Baltimore as the city with the "Best Scene." Along with nationally known art museums and schools and stand-out dining spots, Baltimore continues to emerge as a popular, hip, and ever-growing city for music.

With large stages like Ram's Head Live and Sonar, to smaller venues such as The 8x10 and Charm City Art Space, music is never few and far between. This blog will aim to keep its readers up-to-date on shows at many venues throughout Baltimore, as well as touring bands' schedules.

Local band as well as national acts will be covered, and I will provide interviews and quotes from some of Baltimore's finest musicians and talent. General reviews of concerts and shows will also be posted.
