Out & Back - A Walk Through Imagined Spaces

For SMAC/3, we’re traveling in and out of German forests, abandoned Welsh ruins, otherworldly pavilions, and modular cocoons. Featuring records by Napa Sinephro, Bibio, Harold Budd, Hauschka, and Wolfgang Voigt (Gas).

SMAC (Slow Music Appreciation Club) is a vinyl listening group focused on ambient, drone, new age, electronic, space, and classical music. Grab a glass of wine and settle in to listen to the selected tracks. We’ll spin other records before and after.

It’s all in the cards. Niamh will be joining us again at Bar Renée on Friday 5/15 for a tarot reading and a glass of wine. First come, first served.

Come be a part of our flash mob of readers! With traditional book clubs, there's always the scramble to finish the book and the pressure to have something smart to say. At Silent Book Club, there's no assigned reading. Bring any book and read companionably with us!

Here's how this low-key monthly event goes down:
-6:00-6:30 - Get settled. Get a drink/snack, grab a seat, hang out and chat!
-6:30-7:30 - Quiet reading hour--read the book you brought (this is essentially a flash mob of readers)
-7:30-8:00 - Stick around to chat more. Or, keep reading. Or, feel free to head out. Choose your own adventure, this is whatever you want it to be!

Happy Earth Day! We are anxiously awaiting warmer weather, so we thought we’d speed things up and bring it to the bar. We’re throwing a party with a tropical by the glass takeover of our most expressive and aromatic wines. Fear not the fruit. We will also be serving pork sliders on Hawaiian sweet rolls.

Okay, the playlist is done. And holy crapola, we have a lot to get through. Making it got me super excited, Coverdale and Hecker are incredible composers and performers. These albums rip skull. ☠️
