Fabchannel

Sad news: Fabchannel, which for nine years has been presenting some great concerts, is coming to an end.  Too many music labels don’t want them broadcasting concerts of their artists.  They’ll have the concerts up for one more week, till March 13, and then … they’re gone.  What a pity.

Here are some of the concerts I’ve especially enjoyed:

Joe Henry

There are many more concerts up, including Iron & Wine, The Arcade Fire, Ron Sexsmith, Simple Minds, Shawn Colvin, Luka Bloom, and Solomon Burke. Enjoy them while you can.
