What a great place to catch some live music! Extremely small place means you really get to interact with the musicians. Definitely seems more like a local's choice, but we were visiting for the weekend and decided to try something different. We paid $12 to get in the door, and saw 2 acts both very talented and entertaining. The crowd... More

So glad you found us, and took the time to share your impressions--- you've got some great live music venues in your home neighborhood, so we're particularly pleased to have compared favorably! Hope I got a chance to welcome you in person, and please come back (with friends!) next time you swing through Birmingham---- our music schedule, for months to... More

This intimate venue is a little larger than your den, but not much. That's one of the attractions. Everyone in the room sees and hears everything, whether it's an acoustic set or a rowdy Beatles Cover Band (the BeatLads). The cost is minimal ($10-$20 CASH cover) and it's BYOB/BYOF. A great place to meet friends and make new friends. Check... More

We saw and recommend Amanda Shires and Rod Picott. Nice, safe atmosphere. First-timers are welcomed. Two little girls brought their bean bags to lounge on in front of the small stage. You can't go wrong here. Google Earth and Garmin are off about a block or two. Look for a strip mall between two water tanks across the street from... More

BYOB and come as you are to hear a great variety of music in a relaxed atmosphere. Even if you have never heard of the artist performing, you will undoubtedly walk away as a new fan of a rising star.

It is a music hall that is byob and highlights local talent. Because of this most folks go to hear someone they know or a "friend of a friend." The quality of musicians can vary trememdously, but all talent has to start somewhere and places like moonlight give them that opportunity.

We discovered this little venue by accident. The owner believes in supporting the music community and provide it in a low cost venue. Don't be fooled by this. Sound quality and ambience are excellent. You can bring whatever food and drink you want in. Nothing is sold on site. Free coffee was available. You pay at the door $10 and... More

If you want to go to a nice neighborhood place to hear live music this is it. It's laid back but a classy place. BYOB.

This is a small, laid back place to listen to some talented performers and some just trying it out. I've only been to the nights where musicians are vying for the playoff prize of free studio time. 2 songs are performed and they're judged for talent, originality and stage presence(?) You never know what you're gonna hear but it's fun.... More
