Sound of Boston is an online music publication with a hyper-local focus: they cover the culture, events, and artists comprising Boston’s vibrant music scene. While the world waits for a “Boston Sound,” they are here to show you that it already exists—you just have to know where to look.

Boston’s talent lurks in the basements of Allston, bounces with the bumping bass of House of Blues, and buzzes under the watchful eye of the Elvis bust at Great Scott. It’s out serenading the bronze-masked statues of Davis Square and crooning to clammy crowds in the depths of Park Street station. It’s leaking lullabies from the house next door; it’s stamping and shouting on your neighbor’s front porch. All of their staff, including the founders, are volunteers who are passionate about supporting local artists and helping them reach a wider audience.
