Know Utah
Utah's musical identity runs from the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square to a scrappy punk and ska underground that flourished in Salt Lake City despite the state's conservative reputation. The Provo-Orem corridor produced polished indie pop and post-hardcore, sending bands from all-ages rooms to national stages. Along the Wasatch Front, hip-hop, electronic, and Latin artists now share bills with folk and rock acts.
