There’s more: a collection is coming that gathers Marin residents’ favorite musical memories. Readers can reminisce about concerts, school shows, and community performances from San Rafael to Tiburon.
It’s the kind of cross-town conversation that makes Marin’s cultural scene feel intimate and inclusive, even as it stretches across multiple towns and venues. Who doesn’t love that?
