OUR MISSION

 

'Boston Loves Music' exists to create a supportive community of performers, songwriters, bands, services, and nightlife.

 Our goal is to continue growing as a hub for musicians, guiding you to local resources and events, and to help advance your music endeavors.

If you know of something else we could be sharing with the community, please email us for consideration.

Thank you for visiting!

OUR ROOTS

The idea for Boston Loves Music sparked in 2014.  Tim was looking for a way to promote and create buzz for his 'Acoustic Socials' around the Boston area.  

But he didn’t want to raise up just himself. He wanted to build a community and lift up other inspiring musicians in the area.  

And apparently he had a knack for writing emails, since his newsletter has been going strong (even during the pandemic) for 10+ years…. 

WHO IS TIMKO?

Wait, who’s TIMKO? TIMKO (short for Tim Konchanski)

Tim does more than write a dang good newsletter.  He's been a local singer/songwriter for 20+ years, and open mic host and event music planner for 10+ years.  

When not knee-deep in music, he aspires to cook the perfect pancake.
