February, icy cold temperatures so warm up with hot New England live music

Karen Grenier

February, when things get even colder before they start to warm up. If you need a place to warm up, just keep reading on. Below are several venues that will keep you warm while you listen to some hot New England live music. Order a hot meal. Order your favorite beverage. Then, sit back, relax, or maybe a do a little dance, and check out that funky, soul, blues, indie rock, cover rock, disco, jazz, country, or Hip Hop and rap. Once you’ve got a hot meal inside your body and you move around a bit, you’ll be feeling warmer.
