Local Music Week began an exciting seven days of programming last night at Hi-Tones, inaugurating its celebration of the city’s music culture.
From the organization itself, Local Music Week is a “celebratory campaign to showcase San Antonio’s rich and diverse living music history.” It’s a holistic approach, remembering that all participants, from production and backend to the audience, “play a role in shaping our city’s music legacy.”
To get you in the Local Music spirit, here’s the schedule of events for the rest of the week. For more information, visit LMH’s Do210 page. All shows are free, unless stated otherwise.
