Melissa Etheridge is touring in support of her 10th studio album, Fearless Love. The newly separated famous lesbian mother of four and cancer survivor told Metro Weekly last month that her focus in writing and singing and performing these days is on fearless love. “If you are not choosing to love, you are choosing fear,” she said, laughing, “And then [I] try to make it entertaining. That’s the trip I’m on.” Tuesday, July 20, at 7:30 p.m. Music Center at Strathmore, 5301 Tuckerman Lane, North Bethesda. Tickets are $37 to $102. Call 301-581-5100 or visit strathmore.org.
