The legendary Boston music scene is just as strong today as it has ever been. Seems you just have to look a little harder than before because for the most part it is not broadcast over the airwaves or featured on television. However, on any night of the week, amazing original local music can be seen and heard for relatively little or no cost at numerous clubs and bars in the area and direct links to many of these great venues are listed right on this page! Or, use the BOSTON PHOENIX site for a complete listing of all live gigs in the region!
