If you think the North corner of SW Adams and Elm St in the warehouse district still looks like the top two pictures here (Google Maps Street View 2022 & 2018), you might be surprised to find out some changes have been made!
I met Adara Rae, who is new to the area, through TikTok and she in turn introduced us to a venue that is new to us… Analytical Brewing! I loved the atmostphere and sing-along event. I’m looking forward to more live music there, hopefully on the patio this summer!
One Friday we caught up with Mostly Lawless for the first time. They have only been playing out together for a few months, but their banter is as fun as their music.
Our second stop Friday night was Brasky’s for The Road Less Traveled. I’ve seen TRLT as a duo, a trio, and I’m pretty sure once as a five-piece—and in any lineup, Joey and Jerry are always a great time. Jerry was home for a quick break from his European tour with InnerSeige and headed back out the next day. It was great chatting with both of them!
We had some other stops last weekend, but we’ll share those next week. For now, check out the weekend list here. along with some photos and videos of Adara Rae, Mostly Lawless, and TheRoad Less Traveled and decide where you are going to go enjoy live local music this weekend!
I hope to see you out there!
