Music scene · Calhoun

Calhoun is a northwest Georgia manufacturing and railroad town where music centers on school bands, church gospel groups, and country cover acts. Atlanta and Chattanooga musicians sometimes pass through for events.

Look for live music at the high school auditorium, county fairgrounds, church fellowship halls, American Legion hall, and local restaurants around the historic downtown district.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Atlanta and Chattanooga scenes occasionally passing through.

Start in school band or church choir, play fair and festival slots, and drive to the Atlanta or Chattanooga area for regular open mics and larger bookings.
