December: can you hear the sleigh bells ring-ah-ling and jing-ah-ling? That’s really the sound of percussion, tambourines, and cymbals coming from the New England music scene. Aside from Christmas and Hanukkah celebrations, we’ll be able to treat ourselves to live music while downing a spiked eggnog. Below are some suggestions for a great time listening to music, especially on New Year’s Eve. Enjoy.
