For the concert lover:

In their early days, Damn Tall Buildings didn’t rehearse – they busked. Now whether live or on record, the trio still radiates the energy of a crew of best friends playing bluegrass on the street. Anchoring that energy is their instrumental chops, strong songwriting and varied influences that stretch beyond bluegrass. Part of West Street Live, come see this electric performance on Thursday, Feb. 1 at 7:30 pm.
