2021 was a rough year for everyone. Between the mask and vaccination mandates, restaurants and businesses closing, the rapid rise of Tik Tok, capitol riots, countless deaths, and everything in between. It’s clear that everyone has been going through a lot no matter what industry you may work in. Thankfully, one industry that has continued to work hard during the pandemic is music. If there’s one group of people that never stop working even in the face of a mass extinction event are artists. With everyone itching to get back to normal life, one of the first things to open back up to the public were concerts and music festivals. Thankfully, around June/July of last year concerts and festivals came back for the most part. Of course not like before the pandemic, there were definitely lots of restrictions, but at least artists were able to perform again. It’s now 2022 at the end of January. The country definitely took a set back the past month or so with the latest covid strains, and many concerts and events have been cancelled, but finally festival line ups are being announced for this coming year. You can find a list of some great music festivals below.
