FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS: YARN w/ special guest Terry White & The Loaded Dice $25 General Admission // $30/seat Reserved Tables Available You might expect a band that calls itself Yarn to, naturally, tend to spin a yarn or two. , "rdquo" -> That's what we do, we tell stories, live and in the studio, truth and fiction",singer/songwriter Blake Christiana insists. , "rdquo" -> We don't always opt for consistency. There's a different vibe onstage from what comes through in our recordings. There's a difference in every show as well, you never know what you're going to get." Yarn's ability to persevere ought to come as no great surprise, especially for a band that spent two years honing their chops during a Monday night residency at the famed Kenny's Castaway in New York's Greenwich Village. In effect, it allowed them to rehearse onstage, mostly in front of audiences that often ranged in size from five to a hundred people on any given night. 10 studio albums followed -- Yarn (2007), Empty Pockets (2008), Leftovers Part One (2009), Come On In (2010), Leftovers Part 2 (2011), Almost Home (2012), Shine the Light On (2013), This Is The Year (2016), and Lucky 13 parts 1 & 2 (2019). The band then took to the road, playing upwards of 170 shows a year and sharing stages with such superstars as Dwight Yoakam, Charlie Daniels, Railroad Earth, Marty Stuart, Allison Krauss, Leon Russell, Jim Lauderdale, Leftover Salmon, Amos Lee, The Lumineers and many more. They performed at any number of prestigious venues -- Mountain Stage, Daytrotter, the Orange Peel in Asheville, the Fox Theater in Boulder, the 9:30 Club in D.C, South by Southwest, the Strawberry Festival, Rhythm and Roots, Meadowgrass, Floydfest and so much more, eventually surpassing 1,000 shows, half a million miles and performances in nearly every state. They've driven nonstop, made countless radio station appearances, driven broken-down RVs and watched as their van caught fire. They've paid their dues and then some, looking forward even as they were forced to glance behind. Indeed, the accolades piled up quickly along the way. They have landed on the Grammy ballot 4 times, garnered nods from the Americana Music Association, placed top five on both Radio and Records and the AMA album charts, garnered airplay on Sirius XM, iTunes, Pandora, CNN, and CMT, been streamed millions of times on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon, and also accorded the , "rdquo" -> Download of the Day" from Rolling Stone. Shine the Light On found shared songwriting credits with John Oates (the Oates of Hall & Oates fame), and when audiences expressed their admiration, it brought the band a populist cult following of diehard devotees, popularly known as , "rdquo" -> the Yarmy." Grab dinner before the show at BABYGOLD BARBECUE (link to restaurant website) Or enjoy full service dining inside the club when doors open. ***PARKING*** There is rather limited street parking in the area, we recommend arriving by rideshare, bicycle, or rickshaw. ***AGE RESTRICTIONS*** 21+, minors admitted with guardian

Charles Wesley Godwin has steadily become one of the most respected voices in country and Americana music since the release of his beloved 2019 debut, Seneca. Alongside his longtime band, the Allegheny High, the West Virginia singer-songwriter has earned a reputation as one of the genre's most powerful live performers, with recent highlights including a sold-out Red Rocks headline debut, dates opening Eric Church's Free The Machine Tour, and appearances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, CBS Saturday Sessions, and ESPN's SportsCenter. In 2026, Godwin released his fourth full-length album, Christian Name, his most personal and spiritually profound work to date. Written in the wake of unimaginable personal loss, the album explores grief, redemption, healing, and renewed faith across twelve deeply affecting songs. Featuring collaborations with Luke Combs on "Better That Way" and Wyatt Flores on "Hey There, Son," Christian Name builds on the acclaim of Family Ties.

Vape! The Grease Parody is a hilariously unhinged spoof of the iconic and timeless musical film Grease. The show pokes loving fun at all of the wonderful moments, sexual innuendos, outrageous characters, rivalries and secret romances from the original. The hair products may have changed, but the drama, the rivalries, and the thirst for hallway clout remain timeless. It is the musical you know and love, but dragged through a cloud of strawberry scented vapor and a TikTok filter. It's the show that you want (Ooh! Ooh! Ooh, honey!) Don't miss the Chicago premiere of this hit musical, straight from NYC. GREASE is no longer the word. Now the word is VAPE! - New York Post A must-see! A fun, irreverent night out. I couldn't stop laughing. - Hollywood Press Corps VAPE! is the one that you want! Clever, goofy and camp. - Theater Pizzazz Brash, fast and unapologetically smart. - Theaterscene.net VAPE! The Grease Parody is 85 minutes with no intermission.

This show is sold out Fresh off a breakout year that has taken him from regional Queensland to the global country stage, Mack Geiger is returning to North America for his biggest headline tour to date. The Australian-born singer has quickly become one of the most exciting country exports, following a career-defining debut US tour where he sold out three of five headline shows and performed at some of America's most iconic country venues, including Cain's Ballroom, Billy Bob's Texas, and Gruene Hall. The momentum continued with Mack's Grand Ole Opry debut, marking a major milestone in his rapidly rising career. His breakthrough single , "rdquo" -> String By" has cemented Mack as a global country artist, climbing into the Top 30 on Spotify's Viral 50 USA, the Top 50 on the Billboard Hot Country Chart, the Top 40 on the Global Country Shazam Chart, and becoming his first official US country radio single. The track continues to build momentum, as his first ever single to country radio, it is currently sitting inside the Top 60 of the Billboard Country Radio Charts. Following the release of his latest single , "rdquo" -> Pouring", Mack is heading back to North America for the When It's Pouring 2026 Tour - his biggest international headline run yet. The tour will see Mack bring his signature blend of neo-traditional country storytelling, Australian roots, and modern energy to fans across North America. From cattle stations in regional Queensland to sold-out rooms across the United States, Mack Geiger is proving that authentic country stories can travel anywhere. This next chapter marks the continued rise of one of the most exciting voices in country music
