The fields of the Harvard Athletic Complex once again came to life with the roar of the Boston Calling festival. This year’s edition of the festival kicked off on Friday, May 24, with a hot and sunny day.
The beloved three-day festival, Boston Calling, is set to light up the Harvard Athletic Complex this Memorial Day Weekend. With a lineup headlined by musical luminaries such as Ed Sheeran, The Killers, and Tyler Childers, the festival promises a spectacular array of over 50 artists gracing its stages. The event will feature a diverse selection of talent including Leon Bridges, Trey Anastasio and Classic TAB, Hozier, Reneé Rapp, Megan Thee Stallion, and many others.
Wow! What a long, strange trip it’s been. Here I am at the beginning of a beautiful New England fall, basking in the glowing memories of the best end-of-summer musical celebration Martha’s Vineyard has to offer: Beach Road Weekend Music Festival (BRW). The whole experience reminds me of how lucky we are to have these opportunities to witness such historical once-in-a-lifetime music in the making.
