The Clifton Heights Music Festival
March 9th, 2010
Posted in Concerts, Local Music, music festivals
For as long as I can remember, Cincinnati has been a festival kind of town. Whether we’re celebrating our German heritage at Oktoberfest, or sampling the tastiest of foods at the Taste of Cincinnati and Goetta Fest, the people here love to get out and experience all the best things the city has to offer. More specifically, I’ve noticed over the past several years that people here really take their music seriously, and that is why we’re starting to see an over-abundance of music festivals. Don’t take that as a bad thing though; I can never get enough music.
The Clifton Heights Music Festival is returning in a few weeks, and judging by the lineup, this looks to be the biggest and best yet. The festival takes place over two nights, April 2-3 (hey that’s my birthday weekend!), and obviously it takes place in the city of Clifton, in six bars near Calhoun and West McMillan Streets, just past the University of Cincinnati. Tickets and beer are cheap, and there’s plenty of amazing Cincinnati bands playing, covering all styles of music. Let’s take a look at the daily schedule:
