Live music is one of my favorite things. There is something about it that just draws me in. Last week I discovered a unique opportunity to experience live music when one of my friends invited me to go to a Sofar concert with her. If you aren’t familiar with Sofar Sounds, it is an organization that brings live music to cities all over the world. The gatherings are more intimate and consist of local artists. You have to sign up for tickets and they draw for who can purchase them. They send out an email the day before letting you know where the concert is. Last week’s venue was The Post at River East. This venue was new to me and still unfinished. They are hoping to hold parties and weddings there once it’s complete. The concert was in the outdoor courtyard and we all sat on the ground. There were lights strung over our heads from one side of the wall to the other that, combined with the beautiful weather, created a surreal ambience. We drank our wine and enjoyed the three different artists who shared their talents with all of us that evening. I will definitely go to another and am looking forward to learning about a new venue in my city.
