With COVID cases continuing their three-month decline, vaccines flowing and artists with a year of material ready to perform, the coming months are shaping up to be great times to attend live music in Tucson. Of course, many local venues are not quite ready to host indoor concerts. Those with patios are utilizing their outdoor spaces, and even indoor-only venues are finding unique ways to get music to the masses or prep audiences for when the time is right. The Fox Theatre is collaborating with the Downtown Tucson Partnership to bring back live music, but this isn t a traditional indoor concert series, because the music may very well come to you. Troubadour Thursdays takes place throughout April, and serves as a downtown patio tour, where local musicians will move throughout downtown and perform to multiple restaurants and open areas. Each week features a different style of music, and all of the travelling troubadours are local.
