A Sound You Can't Ignore is an online publication focusing on the Lehigh Valley music scene, and we are so excited to have you join us for our launch!

‍

With decades of experience writing and photographing in this area, we know there is a thriving music scene here not getting the coverage it deserves.

‍

Over many conversations during lunch at the Whitehall Diner, our team has worked to shape what we want A Sound You Can't Ignore to be.

‍

‍

We want to spotlight homegrown bands that are performing in beloved venues, writing and recording at area studios all while giving back to the scene. We also want to highlight news and developments with larger arts-focused organizations and cover national touring acts. 

‍

There is a great community of supporters that come out on any night of the week to experience someone play live music…and we want to be there as well.

‍

But we can’t do it alone – we need your help. 

‍

We want to hear from you about events you are excited about, projects you have coming up, thoughts about a recent show you want to share. 

‍

A Sound You Can’t Ignore is a lyric taken from the Slingshot Dakota song “Louder.” For us, it’s a song about not giving up, to be bold and to keep moving forward.

‍

We see you all out there doing it, and we hope to be an advocate telling your stories, sharing your thoughts and visually capturing what makes this scene distinct.
