While restaurants and stores have been allowed to re-open at reduced capacity, bars, clubs and other music venues are still closed because of the COVID-19 crisis. That means musicians are still taking their shows online to connect with their fans.
This week, that includes the relaunch of The County Line’s live music series, which is presented by Ancira Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram. The 2020 edition of the series, which benefits the San Antonio Food Bank, kicked off in March but was suspended because of emergency orders intended to slow the spread of virus.
The series will stream from The County Line Bar-B-Q restaurant on Interstate 10 at least through May. The public will not be allowed to attend these shows in person.
Texas country singer Bri Bagwell, whose most recent album is “In My Defense,” will perform at 6:30 p.m. today, followed by Kin Faux on May 14, the Reed Brothers on May 21 and Jesse Stratton on May 28. The show’s will stream on the restaurant’s Facebook page (@CountyLine10).
