Boston has a particularly musical sound this weekend, from the free, outdoor Berklee Jazz Festival in the South End to the two-day Life is good Music Festival in Canton with kiddie favorites Laurie Berkner Band, Ben Rudnick and Friends, Keller Williams and Imagination Movers on the Kids Stage. Kids even the opportunity to ask Laurie Berkner questions about her music - be sure to plan ahead for that!
