Ashland Soundtracks was created in the summer of 2021 as pandemic restrictions lifted and people were excited to safely get out and about in town. Event organizer Chris Ray, owner of Origin Beer Lab, explains, “The thinking behind it was to create a lively and memorable atmosphere in Ashland where the casual visitor will have an enhanced experience.”
The first year was so successful, that the Town of Ashland awarded financial support for the next three years! Saturday Soundtracks will feature 24 concerts per year, each in three series of eight. This weekend launches the second series of 2022, dubbed the Summer Series, running July 9 to August 27. The Fall Series will begin in September and stretch eight weeks into autumn.
You’re invited each Saturday evening to shop, dine, and play in Downtown Ashland while enjoying the free concerts. For more information visit ashlandvirginia.com/soundtracks.
