Music Is Art Live @ The Center returns

The fourth season of Music Is Art Live @ The Center kicks off with Doria Roberts and Picture This at 9 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 26, at the Atrium, located at the Center for the Arts, UB North Campus, Amherst.

In 1999, Roberts won a slot to appear at Lilith Fair. She was poised to sign to a major label, however, a piece of legislation prompted the activist in Roberts to step away from lucrative offers and release her own record.

Picture This features members of local bands, including Today's Not Tomorrow, Some Day Never Comes and Seven Day Faith. Other concerts in the live series include:  Davey O. and 53 Days, Oct. 3  Maria Sebastian and McCarthyizm, Oct. 16  Lisa Rose and Electromat, Oct. 24  Kerilea Butler and Stone Row, Nov. 7  John Schmitt and The Maelestrom Percussion Ensemble, Nov. 14

Concerts are free and open to all ages.

If you can't catch the live shows, season three of Music Is Art Live @ The Center airs Sundays at 10:30 p.m. on CW23 WNLO. Broadcasts include Sept. 24, Oct. 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, Nov. 5 and 12.

Music Is Art Live @ The Center began as a collaboration of the Center for the Arts with the Music Is Art organization and founder Robby Takac of Chameleonwest Studios and the Goo Goo Dolls.
