HUMBOLDT, Tenn. The first ever sidewalk music festival allowed acoustic artists to sing their hearts out for downtown Humboldt.
“You have been able to hear art, music from each corner of the streets. I’ve heard piano, guitar, selling vocals. I’m just really happy to be a part of it. Tons of people came through, I’ve had a blast. It was really fun today,” said Rita Perry, a local singer and songwriter.
The pandemic affected artists around the world, but music was able to bring these performers together.
“It was a weird year to be retired but we came out and played for the first time today. I probably wouldn’t have done that if I hadn’t been laid off last year because I had time to practice,” said Dennis Alexander, a local musician.

Besides no longer feeling comfortable burning candles in their home, Donald and Rita Perry installed fire-resistant plants around their new home off of Little Walnut Road. Donald Perry suggested watering them Saturday morning because they were turning brown. The Perrys lost nearly everything when their former home in Silver Acres burned in the Quail Ridge Fire 10 years ago.
