Staying local this Fourth of July? Stuck without plans and wondering what to do?
Not to worry — as always, our local music community delivers the goods to make sure your Independence Day goes off with a bang!
The first Friday of July is right around the corner, which means it’s time for South Bethlehem to be overtaken with local, independent music of many varieties.
So… it turns out that LVU Contributor Lisa Robinson took so many photos at Saturday night’s Concert for the Kids benefit for Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley and Lehigh Valley Health Network Children’s Hospital that we missed an entire folder’s worth on the SD card for the first post…
This July, gear up for some Blueberry Jam, courtesy of Lehigh Valley Underground and Historic Bethlehem Museums and Sites!
Saturday afternoon and night, a group of musicians led by singer-songwriter Scott Marshall once again came to South Bethlehem’s Steel Pub in the name of pediatric cancer awareness.
In addition to their catalog of original material — including the forthcoming single, “So I Love,” — Bethlehem-based acoustic rockers Billy Bauer Band are known regionally for their popular Dave Matthews Band tribute show.
On Friday night, the band will head north to Jim Thorpe to bring the show to the historic Mauch Chunk Opera House.
Even with what many expect to be a rainy week, a sure sign of summer is on the way this weekend: the beginning of the Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks season!
The 52 free shows on the Levitt stage begin Friday and Saturday night with Lehigh Valley Music Awards Winners Preview Weekend, featuring four local acts who found themselves recognized at the LVMAs back in March.
Also, a note: keep an eye on the weather (and LVU’s Facebook page) for updates as to the location of Out to Lunch this week. In case of inclement weather, the plan will be to move indoors to a location to be determined.
Last year, Scott Marshall assembled a group of local musicians for a pediatric cancer benefit at Bethlehem’s Steel Pub.
On June 2, the now-annual event is back with an all-new, multi-genre lineup in the name of helping families of children with cancer.
Our highly-educational and downright glorious weekend in Lancaster for the 10th Annual LAUNCH Music Conference continued into Saturday, where summer-like temperatures served as a stunning backdrop for the evening’s music.
