Join us Friday, August 17 from 4-9PM for #freshcanfriday! None Of This Makes Sense makes its return on draft and in cans to go to pair up with a night of FREE live local rock n' roll! food truck TBD*
6PM FREE Live music featuring:
SPORTS BAR - “There’s two kinds of garage bands: those who’s musical endeavors are limited to practicing in their parent’s basement between rounds of bagel bites, and those that take firm grasp of the loud, fuzzy, rawness of the pre-digital era and channel it into the kind of rock n’ roll you can fuck, fight, or party to, or all three. Sports Bar is the latter.”~rvamag.com
New Lions, formerly Clair Morgan - Clair Morgan is a 5-piece rock outfit from Richmond, Virginia. A band that jokingly refers to themselves as being a band and not being a band. With influences ranging from the likes of Cursive, Teenage Fanclub, Shipping News, Hum, Cap’n Jazz and several others, it comes as no surprise that this enormous collective bring their own unique spin to mathematically dynamic indie rock. No surface is left untouched as the group expands on the songwriting of frontman Clair Morgan with a variety of auxiliary instrumentation, smooth harmonies, complex interlaced guitars and syncopated rhythms. All of this combined leads to a unique live experience that can only best be described as a tiny orchestra playing catchy rock tunes.
Magnus Lush - Post-Rock Richmond, VA band. Slightly throwback yet progressive.
Naked Pictures - Grunge, Metal, Power Slop but with an Edge, Space, Rock N Roll

Stable Shakers are an ever-changing, dynamic instrumental twang jazz group that have no intention on fitting into a cookie cutter genre. Recently, the Stable Shakers have doubled down on this ideology, by bringing in Nashville recording artist and vocalist Brechyn Chace of The Hello Strangers. Brechyn brings a wealth of talent, energy, and a remarkable versatility, segueing from country ballad, to swinging jazz, to sultry blues all with an undeniable folky flair.

For almost two decades, the Hackensaw Boys have plowed the asphalt delivering their raw, gritty American vernacular sounds to music halls and streets across the world. Twenty years later, the group continues to bring their burning hot vision of American roots music into a new age, fueled as much by a rowdy punk spirit as by the traditional masters that first inspired them.
The Tillers have been thumping their own distinctive sound of string band style folk music for a decade, riding it all over the country and across the sea. Four studio albums and one live record have won them praise as modern folk storytellers of the national soundscape.
Dharma Bombs formed in the heart of the Commonwealth with the intent to spread Appalachian music with a heaping side of Dixieland. We are a folk band equipped with a full horn section, lyrical swing, and a yearning to stir the dust off the dance floor. With diverse backgrounds from the swampy sounds of Baton Rouge to the crooning twang of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Dharma Bombs is a confluence between folk music born on the street corners and ridge lines of the South. Hoot and holler, stomp and clap, twang and sang with the rowdy Dharma Bombs as they spread their special brand of authentic Appalachian Dixieland.
For the past decade, The Judy Chops have been wowing audiences with their deft musicianship and high-energy live shows. This seven-piece band comprised of family and friends has evolved from a Shenandoah Valley favorite into one of the hottest acts in the Virginia music scene. Their unique take on Americana is a fusion of modern and vintage musical styles, blending elements of swing, blues, rock, and soul for a sonic experience Huffington Post calls 'genre-defying!
Rootsy, alternative folk songstress from the Carolina mountains.
