I hope you like this little blog. I hope to share upcoming events, especially music in the area. 850 is the area code prefix for a wide area of Florida – the Panhandle of Florida – the Emerald Coast – North West Florida – all aspects of 850. Although I hope to share events that cover that wide-ranging area, most of the time I’ll be focused on events from Destin to Panama City, including areas in-between.
My admission of bias: Although I will happily report on a variety of music – and generally speaking nearly any live music is good music in my book – my heart mostly lies with blues, rock, alternative, and various types of metal. So with that in mind, posts will somewhat reflect my sensibility in music as a whole.
Lastly, if you are a band or venue that would like a few pointers on how to market a show – send me an email. 850music at gmail.com. I have a background in promoting events and am happy to give pointers. If you are looking for more in depth consulting or web services, I offer affordable rates to help with that as well.
I hope that you enjoy this blog – and find it useful in finding new music to listen to, locals venues to support, and much more.
