Pride and Joy

Does the state of things have you singing the blues? Work out your troubles with folks who feel the same way with a new music series on Fountain Square.

Fountain Blues, a partnership between America’s River Roots and 3CDC, brings the best blues musicians from the area to Fountain Square every Wednesday, from 5 to 8 p.m. The series began this week and continues through the end of August.
