The sweet sounds of jazz, blues, rock, reggae, bluegrass, classical, and everything in between echo throughout Baltimore all summer. Free outdoor concerts in Baltimore are a Charm City tradition. There's something for everyone, no matter what style of music you like or where in the city you are. So pull up a lawn chair, a blanket, sit back and enjoy the tunes.
