 ps screaming. No exit in sight. The Schizophonics kick the door in and nev
 er let it close. This San Diego–based three-piece delivers a live show t
 hat’s loud and dangerously fun—an all-gas\, no-brakes blast of feedbac
 k and groove. It’s full-contact rock ’n’ roll: high voltage\, high v
 elocity\, and sharpened to a blade. The band features Pat Beers on vocals 
 and guitar\, Lety Beers on drums\, and Sarah Linton on bass. Together they
  unleash a fuzz-soaked\, funk-fueled attack built on pounding rhythm and f
 eral energy. Every song hits like a charge. Every set feels like the floor
  might give out. Blink and you miss something. Stand still and you get run
  over. Forged on the road and fueled by motion\, The Schizophonics have to
 rn through stages in fourteen countries\, earning a reputation as a must-s
 ee live act that turns rooms upside down. Channeling the raw spirit of Jam
 es Brown\, Iggy Pop\, Jimi Hendrix\, Little Richard\, and The Sonics\, the
 y strip rock back to its most dangerous elements—and set them loose. Beh
 ind the chaos is precision. Behind the noise are hooks that bite. The Schi
 zophonics are currently finishing their fourth full-length album\, due Sum
 mer 2026. FEVER DOG Formed in 2007 by a group of 6th graders in the Califo
 rnia Desert\, FEVER DOG have been electrifying audiences and earning the a

  of the time\, and I discovered so much about music and how to create it\,
 ” says the Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter. “Instead of going into a 
 studio with a producer for two weeks\, I just waited for the record to bui
 ld itself. I’d get up and go outside\, see a butterfly and connect that 
 with some impulsive thought I’d had three months ago\, and suddenly a so
 ng I’d been working on would make sense. That’s how the whole album ca
 me to be.” The follow-up to 2018’s critically acclaimed Wide Awake \, 
 If I Were a Butterfly finds Baxter co-producing alongside Tim O’Sullivan
  (Grace Potter\, The Head and the Heart) and Kai Welch (Molly Tuttle\, Sie
 rra Hull)\, slowly piecing together the album’s patchwork of lush psyche
 delia and Beatlesesque pop. In addition to working at Thunder Sound (the K
 entucky studio he called home for months on end)\, Baxter recorded in Cali
 fornia\, Texas\, Tennessee\, and Washington\, enlisting a remarkable lineu
 p of musicians: Shakey Graves\, Lennon Stella\, several members of Cage th
 e Elephant\, Zac Cockrell of Alabama Shakes\, Morning Teleportation’s Tr
 avis Goodwin\, and legendary Motown drummer Miss Bobbye Hall\, among many 
 others. In an especially meaningful turn\, two of the album’s tracks fea
 ture the elegant pedal steel work of his father\, Bucky Baxter (a musician
  who performed with Bob Dylan and who passed away in May 2020). Thanks to 
 the extraordinary care and ingenuity behind its creation\, If I Were a But
 terfly arrives as a work of rarefied magic\, capable of stirring up immens
 e feeling while leaving the listener happily wonderstruck.

DESCRIPTION:Dinner Special:\nCajun Turkey Meatloaf\nMashed Potatoes\nHouse
  Salad\nBaguette\n*meat or veggie chili will be available to order at the 
 counter \n––– \nBrass Queens is a female-led\, New York-based brass 
 band that has been dominating the brass band scene since 2019.  \nFinding
  that they shared similar frustrations about the emerging brass band scene
  in New York City\, co-founders Alex Harris and Ally Chapel formed a group
  dedicated to showcasing the talents of female musicians in a landscape th
 at was dominated by male musicians and bandleaders. After debuting in Marc
 h 2019\, Brass Queens grew to be a fixture in the local music scene and wa
 s dubbed “the hardest working band in town” by their peers. The Queens
  gained a dedicated following through outdoor performances on the streets 
 of Brooklyn and playing pop-up events in their community through the pande
 mic. Now\, a core value of the band is to play for as many audiences as po
 ssible to increase the visibility of female musicians.  \nThe band has de
 veloped a signature style that sits right at the intersection of the Big A
 pple and the Big Easy. Their sound is deeply inspired by\, and pays homage
  to\, the New Orleans brass band tradition while injecting the upbeat\, mu
 ltifaceted energy of their New York home into each performance. In Novembe
 r 2023\, the band released their first full-length album titled Black & Go
 ld\, which is an ode to the Brass Queen’s incredible early fanbase who s
 upported the band from the virtual performances and socially-distanced str
 eet corners during the COVID-19 pandemic\, to the crowded clubs and packed
  venues of today. Less than a year later\, Brass Queens released their sec
 ond full-length album and their first album of all-original music\, titled
  Hot Tub Sessions Vol. I. \nBrass Queens Website\n(Ticket Includes 5% City
