This venue is by far one of my favorites in Ann Arbor. It just doesn't get more intimate than this acoustic setting. It feels as though your enjoying your own personal performance by some of the greatest artists you could imagine. Recently they had a night with New Orleans finest Dr. John, other artists such as Victor Wooten, Cowboy Junkies, and Johnny Winter have all performed at this amazing venue. They have something for everybody at any given date, show prices range from free to upwards fifty dollars.
