Ain’t no party like a Scranton party, and we tend to prove that every Parade Day! There’s live music happening throughout the day on Saturday in Lackawanna County to entertain parade-goers, but also throughout NEPA all weekend for those who’d rather avoid the St. Patty’s March madness. Whatever you’re feelin’, whether it’s Irish bands, tribute acts, or dance parties, get out on the town!
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
Cover Photo of the Week: Up-and-coming country artist out of NEPA, Jase Mathews is playing at all different venues this weekend! Fresh off the release of his latest single, “This Whiskey,” find this full-time musician playing Slingshots Bar & Grill in Moscow on Friday, March 7.
Then, Mathews joins up with country band, Flatland Ruckus, for a tribute to Toby Keith at Cove Haven Resorts in the Poconos on Saturday, March 8. Finally your last chance to catch his country vibes this weekend, he plays Drafts Bar in Lake Ariel on Sunday afternoon.
