May 2012 – As far back as I can remember (maybe around the age of 7?) I have had a love affair with music. Yes, like most girls of the 80s & 90s, there was an obsession with New Kids on the Block but beyond that and unlike most girls at that age, I fell hard for the Grateful Dead. There was just something about Jerry’s voice. My uncle gave me my first album, What a Long Strange Trip it’s Been, and my dad put more fuel on the fire with the introduction of Terrapin Station. I think everyone who is impacted by music can recall that first album or concert that stands out vividly in their mind as the moment that changed their lives forever. For me, it was being in the sunroom of our house in Baltimore dancing around to the first Grateful Dead album that my uncle gave me. That one moment has led to a continuous quest for music that gives that same feeling I had dancing around the sunroom as a child. That said, the announcement of summer concerts around the Wasatch and beyond has me excited to once again dance barefoot like a kid. Here’s just a few of the exciting upcoming concert schedules around SLC:
