Rising star Bartees Strange got his start playing DIY clubs in the Oklahoma City area. As a Black kid from Mustang, it wasn't until visiting the 9:30 Club that Bartees saw representation on stage. "How are you supposed to be a doctor, if you don't know a doctor?" asks #IVW21 Artist Ambassador Bartees Strange.
As a hotbed for alternative rock music and a focal point for Washington D.C.'s activist community, 9:30 Club has been shaping the cultural conversation, locally and nationally, for 41 years. Bartees Strange sat down with I.M.P's Head of Communications and NIVA Board Member Audrey Fix Schaefer to dive into the storied nightclub, in this special episode recorded and broadcast live during Independent Venue Week 2021 from the Backbar in 9:30 Club.
Celebrating the spirit of independence, 'Independent Venue Speak' dives into the spaces where culture is created. Hosted by a different guest artist each month, this podcast focuses on how one specific venue has shaped the narrative in their music community.
'Independent Venue Speak' is produced by Marauder in partnership with See Tickets.
