Wherever we can, we make music
Music is part of who we are in Southwest Michigan. We listen, sing and perform it every chance we get. Week after week, regional-favorite vocalists and instrumentalists strum and sing in our craft wineries and breweries. Jazz musicians jam on community stages. Songwriters share their lyrics at Create Bar & Grill. Municipal bands and community summer concerts lure us outdoors, tapping our feet to each beat.
At the Mainstage Theater, Howard Performing Arts Center, The Acorn, Four Winds Casino Resort, county fairs and seasonal festivals, renowned musicians wow all ages with their crowd-pleasing talents. But it’s when our professional Southwest Michigan Symphony Orchestra plays along Lake Michigan’s shore that you realize how fortunate you are to be here.
