Music scene · Monahans

A small Permian Basin city where country, Tejano, and classic rock shape local events. The oil-field economy brings workers from Midland and Odessa, some of whom play in area bands.

Local bars, the county fairgrounds, and church fellowship halls host the bulk of local performances. Midland and Odessa offer the nearest established music venues.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Midland and Odessa scene occasionally passing through.

Join the school band, connect with church musicians, or look for fair and rodeo events. Driving to Midland or Odessa is necessary for regular club gigs.
