Music Venues Add Value to College Campus Life in New Article

A new web article finds 20 college town music venues that help students escape the demands of academic life

SALISBURY, Md., Oct. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- College students who want an occasional escape from the demands of academic life should take a look at a newly-launched article about college town music venues. The website for Great Value Colleges recently published an onsite profile of 20 Great College Town Music Venues across the United States. The article provides an adjunct to the website's comprehensive collection of informative resources that are intended to help students find the best value in higher education.

The 20 music venues were chosen primarily for their proximity to popular colleges and universities, and author Gabrielle Kratsas also considered positive reviews on Yelp and any awards won by the venues. The article highlights a number of world-class musical venues that happen to reside in college towns, and the locations are numbered but not ranked in any way. The purpose is to demonstrate to prospective college students the value of nearby, off-campus entertainment options.

Typical of the article's entries are the 40 Watt Club near University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, and the Greek Theater near University of California in Berkeley, California, both of which regularly play host to A-list musicians. Several of the article's hottest music spots are also endorsed by "Rolling Stone" magazine, including the Bowery Ballroom near New York University in New York City, which is considered a "must-play" space for musicians on the way to the top.
