Live Music for a Summer Weekend in Chatham

Pittsboro, NC – There is something about the warm weather and the feel of summertime that makes me want to be outdoors and listen live music. It’s even nicer when I can be close to home and see local bands performing a variety of music styles in such an eclectic choice of venues.
