Music scene · Boardman

Boardman is an agricultural and industrial town in Morrow County along the Columbia River, where school bands, church choirs, and community gatherings make up the local sound. Tri-Cities and Hermiston musicians sometimes drive west for small events.

The high school auditorium, church fellowship halls, community center, and county fairgrounds provide most stages. Local parks and riverfront event spaces host occasional summer concerts.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Tri-Cities and Hermiston scene occasionally passing through.

New musicians should join school or church ensembles, watch the community center schedule, and drive to the Tri-Cities or Hermiston for open mics and more frequent small-venue bookings.
