 🔥 What We Talk About:

  • We're all about discovering the songs that actually mean something—if you're into raw talent, great stories, and music that hits you right in the guts, you're in the right place.

  • It's a hook a minute—first the three chords, then the little synth line, and that classic 70s production with the fuzz guitar right in your face.

  • Sliding into the support slot with all the cool confidence of a vintage vinyl find, the Dave Bragg trio kicked off the night with a set that oozed effortless charm and rich rootsy textures.
