A fifteen minute drive from Central Tucson, Sabino Canyon is a perfect day hike for those interested in viewing the splendid desert flora and fauna that make Southern Arizona so beautiful.

There is very rarely a lack of good live music to listen to in Tucson, no matter your musical tastes. This weekend is no exception with the arrival of indie hip-hop MC Brother Ali to our fair desert city.

It is hard to describe Ali's sound without knowing a little of his background. An albino who grew up in Minneapolis and converted to Islam, Ali's music reflects ...

Tucson has already reached the century mark (in temperature) this year. Get away for a few hours and see a show by Dolan Ellis, Arizona's Official State Balladeer. You'll pay only $12 ($6 for children) to see Dolan's 90-minute matinee show in the beautiful theatre he built in COOL Ramsey Canyon. ...

Dolan Ellis had a dream. Unlike most of us, Dolan ignored the "It Couldn't Be Done" naysayers and set about to create a magical venue for folk music in beautiful Ramsey Canyon.

There were many reasons to say it couldn't be done. Ramsey Canyon is far from Dolan's home base of Phoenix and Scottsdale, and even more than ...

The concerts at Tohono Chul Park are only $18 for non-members and $10 for members. The concert starts ...

Think of 49 gorgeous acres right at the northwestern edge of Tucson. If you're out shopping at La Encantada or Tucson Mall, it's only 4 miles away, and even closer to Foothills Mall or Casas Adobes.

Governor Janet Napolitano named it officially an Arizona Treasure, one of only two places in Tucson to achieve that recognition.

The 49 acres contain several unique gardens and trails, and even a ...

The University of Arizona may be finished with classes, but their spring sports are still going strong. And now that the students are gone (and the evenings are not quite 110 degrees), it is a great opportunity to catch some PAC-10 baseball. Saturday marks the first of a 3-game series the Wildcats will host against University of Southern California.

7pm at Frank Sancet Field (located just east of Arizona Stadium and ...

Close your eyes and imagine yourself, camping for the evening and resting after a day of riding and roping and working the cattle. It's easy to do when you're listening to the soothing sounds of the Desert Sons, Tucson's great Western quartet. John Ryberg (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) and Benny Young (fiddle, harmony vocals) have been together since 1989. Their usual bass player is Bill Ronstadt and the usual ...

"Banjo" and "Virtuoso" may seem to be contradictory terms, but not when the name Tim Wiedenkeller goes with them. I never want people to think Tim's talent is limited to banjo, in forms ranging from his orignal classical numbers to bluegrass and classic country and other genres not usually not thought of for banjo. So I quickly add that he's also world-class on a number of instruments including guitar ...
