Local Series
Across New York State, local communities hold free music series that bring area talent and national artists to the small towns and villages across the state. Here, we highlight these local music series that can be found in the smallest of towns and largest of cities.
Summer concert series can be found nestled in the towns of the Adirondacks, Catskills and Finger Lakes, making a vacation or trip in these parts of the state can easily include free music performances!
New York has historically been the hub, the heart, the center of America’s music scene, and we explore all news of festivals from New York State and beyond.
