I think we can all agree that Memorial Day weekend shows at Les Schwab Amphitheater serve as a sort of unofficial kickoff to the summer concert season, and with the holiday right around the corner, I thought we should take a look at what’s coming our way between now and the end of September.
Below, you’ll find as much info as I could dig up about live music happening this summer in Central Oregon. There’s the Schwab’s shows (both ticketed and the free ones on Sundays), concert series at the Athletic Club of Bend and Black Butte Ranch, and everything currently on the calendars at the Midtown/Domino complex, Silver Moon and McMenamins. Oh, and some other random stuff that doesn’t neatly fit into any one category.
Plus, there’s a long list of upcoming festivals, including Sisters Folk Festival, Bend Roots Revival, Bend Summer Festival, The Bite of Bend, 4 Peaks Music Festival, High & Dry Bluegrass Festival and more.
I know there are a few things missing from this list. Neither the Deschutes County Fair’s music lineup nor the Munch & Music lineup were ready for publication today. But for the most part, this should be a pretty comprehensive listing of your opportunities to catch live music this summer. If you know of something I’ve missed, feel free to shoot me an email and let me know.
