Friday! 7-8pm, Bright Brown (Alex Nahas) will be gracing our little stage. Bright Brown is the cinematically poetic music of Alex Nahas, the Brooklyn based singer / multi-instrumentalist who plays the rarely seen Chapman Stick and Dragonfly tap guitars and harbors a deep affinity for mood, texture and atmosphere.

As Bright Brown has evolved over the course of four LPs, one EP and, most recently, the all acoustic release, "Whispering Gallery", Nahas has carved out a niche that slots into the same lineage as Bon Iver, Nick Drake, David Byrne, David Bowie, and Daniel Lanois: all one-of-a-kind artists who shoehorned unorthodox approaches into highly digestible songwritin

Admission is by-donation

"...brilliant songs, full of pathos and alienation, but sweetened with strong doses of optimism. From the desiccate ‘Like Texas’ to the plaintive and even more parched ‘King of Thirst’, this music often broods along with us, but Bright Brown never fails to counter our collective agita with healthy doses of climactic major chords and high-arcing vocal choruses. Here are echoes of Leonard Cohen and Nick Drake, but with much more urgency."

What's a cocktail without a little pageantry? If you've never had our Old Fashioned, tonight's a great night to try one. We've got Luis Betancourt doing an Unplugged Session this evening from 7-8pm

Luis Betancourt (Luis Betancourt) is a musician based out of Burlington, VT. During his many years living in Brooklyn, he performed in several bands including AVO (post-punk/left of center pop) and the Whiskey Spitters (traditional string band), as well as performed alongside artists such as Lana Del Rey. Luis writes, records and performs a unique strain of indie rock that incorporates elements of low-fi folk, chamber pop, and post-punk, with an emphasis on lyrics and melody. His music recalls the spirit of Elliott Smith, early R.E.M., VU, Joy Division, and Arthur Russell.

Along with Townie Night, on Thursdays we've got one of Burlington's hidden gems, Lincoln Sprague on piano from 5-6pm. Come relax and enjoy good company as this piano stalwart explores an eclectic repertoire of blues, jazz standards, gospel,band traditional music, eliciting nostalgic vibrations from the lounge’s 1916 Model “O” Steinway grand piano.

It's Saturday, it's Yacht Rock Night from 8-10, there's really no better reason to come have a strawberry hibiscus margarita, or any of our other delicious offerings. Maybe even get yourself a jumbo dawg while DJ Jesse Miles takes you on a journey through the world of yacht rock (and a little nyacht rock)
