Folk & acoustic shows in Boston

Boston packs a lot into a small map: Allston rock clubs, Cambridge listening rooms, Back Bay comedy and late sets around Downtown Crossing. Folk and acoustic sets favor listening rooms, songwriter nights and stripped-down shows.

15 events coming up across 7 venues in Boston, including Royale, The Cantab Lounge and Citizens House of Blues Boston. The first starts Thursday at 7:00 PM.
