Lorraine's Coffee House

This past Thursday night the band performed at Lorraine's Coffee House in Garner, North Carolina. This was our fourth time there since this past summer. It is a great family venue on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays when all kinds of live music (Jazz, Country, Southern Rock and Bluegrass) perform. It is a great place to go on the weekends to hear some very good music and also to get some killer coffee. We do enjoy playing here, the people that come out are always a great audience and I have to say it again; the coffee is amazing (eat your heart out Starbucks).

This place could honestly be booming with just it's coffee alone, but adding the live music aspect really allows for more people to come in. The number of customers that they have when live music is performed is amazing. The aspect of music draws in such a variety of people and a large crowd, but how can you reach many different people? The way that Lorraine's does that is by way of social media, mainly Facebook. They have over 2,000 likes on Facebook and regularly post about what is goin on at the coffee house. You can find everything on their Facebook page or their website, www.lorrainescoffeehouse.com.

But anyway, check out this video from this past Thursday night of the band playing a Jimmy Martin tune called "Honey You Don't Know My Mind". I'm on guitar and singing, Caleb on bass, Connor on mandolin, Jackson on banjo and Nathan on fiddle; sorry for the video quality I could not get it any clearer. Also, do not forget to like Lorraine's Coffee House on Facebook and go out sometime to enjoy good coffee and good music!

  1. You guys sound really great! I had no idea you were part of band. I may have to look a little more into Bluegrass music now.

  3. My hometown is near garner! The times I go home are the only times I listen to bluegrass because of my family. I think this is a very unique topic and I believe the internet provides a good platform for it to be brought to others.
