It was the beginning of 2020, and Matthew Fuller was looking forward to an exciting year. For the first time ever, he was booked solid with music gigs for the entire calendar, a lineup of shows that would take him all over the country doing what he loved. He was on top of the world, but in a few short months, he watched each of those shows get canceled as the pandemic ravaged life as we knew it.
As the insane temperatures dip away this week (at least for the moment), a flurry of fantastic events follow in their wake and, maybe someday, fall color as well.
