Live Music & Events On The Heated Covered PATIO
Sunflower Headlights
The Sunflower Headlights are a motley band of wayward Chicago musicians who deliver folk rock tunes influenced by the sounds of the 1960's and 1970's. In addition to their original music, the Headlights cover jukebox songs throughout the decades, from classic rock to 90’s/2000’s nostalgic hits.
In other words. Wear your dancing shoes AND make your reservation
Doc Elliot
Doc plays a great mix of Americana, alternative, folk and even classic rock.

We like to keep the variety coming out here on the patio.
Pleased as punch to have these guys out again. We don’t know what they’ll play…Southern and Classic Rock, Blues, Swing, Jazz Standards, Cinematic Instrumentals, Folk Music and of course, Bluegrass, but we’re in!
Alex Hoffer
You never know, with Alex playing, you might just have to get up and dance. He’s got a contagious energy about him. He’s one of our faves.
Here’s a poetic little description of his sound, "Blending heavy Blues styled vocals with a more Funk, Rock and Folk guitar style, there's an unknown familiarity about Hoffer."
