I spent a summer in Kentucky, and ever since then I’ve had a strange appreciation for bluegrass music. So if I ever find myself in Central on a Tuesday night (which is surprisingly often), I make sure to stop by Cantab. It seems like many people have the same idea, as the dark, crowded space is definitely the place to be. There’s no cover, affordable beer, and some solid foot-stomping music. Sounds like a good time to me. I recommend getting here on the early side (around 9) to grab a seat or standing space with a view of the stage.There’s typically an opening act as well as a headliner, so the music continues until around 1 AM (although I’ve never stayed that long. It is a school night, after all). The night has a laid-back vibe and is the ideal intro for anyone who hasn’t yet experienced this musical style.Although Boston is nowhere close to this music’s motherland, the bands are often casually clad in jeans, beards, and flannel, giving the experience an authentic vibe. I’ll admit, I’ve only ever been to Cantab Lounge on Tuesdays, so I can’t comment on different nights. But if I can get a weekly dose of bluegrass on an otherwise uneventful night, I’m very happy. Thanks for spicing up my Tuesdays, Cantab!
