Music lovers in Fort Worth have something to look forward to in August. Despite the heat, venues across the city are hosting concerts that are worth attending. Tulips, a venue in the Near Southside, is featuring local artists on its stage.

This is part of an effort to bring music to the community and provide a welcome distraction from the summer heat. Further details about the concerts and lineups are available from local music sources, including The Soundcheck, a biweekly music column that covers the Tarrant music scene.
