As
the "Live Music Capital of the World," Austin hosts
a variety of live music every night of the week.
The multi-faceted arts scene, offering traditional artwork alongside
the avant-garde, is growing as rapidly as the city itself. This
beautiful city is overflowing with creative and talented people
ready to share and entertain.

Nightclub

patrons. The lighting is extremely attractive, generating a
genuine New York feel.
You will enjoy sitting in one of the high-arched cushioned booths
and catching glances of fellow patrons from the mirrored walls.
The bar has an excellent music selection. If it is not too busy,
play a round of pool or head upstairs to the dance floor.

and rockabilly bands of all sizes to play on, with a dance
floor perfect for large groups. One half of the bar is a patio
to sit out and enjoy a warm Austin night.
The dress code seems to be a step above casual, but it's Austin,
so really, anything goes. Domestic and imported beer is available.
Try a margarita from the machine or enjoy Happy Hour, which
starts at 5:00pm.
