In addition to Eli’s regular amaro service, we’ll be welcoming Ryan Gitman from Senza Maeso as a guest bartender featuring Senza Maeso and a specialty cocktail made with Senza!

In addition, Erin Gomez from Malama Cocina will be pairing her artisan chocolates with the amaro selections!

Come on down from 6 to 8 and get bitter!

It's pretty rare that there's a pop-punk/emo/hardcore show in Lockhart, and we can't wait to go back to our roots! Join us for a great show December 21st with @ourlastdaze, @junkbunny, and Blue Collar Boi! Sweep your bangs over and let's go!

Our Last Daze: Forged from the burgeoning music scene of Central Texas, Our Last Daze is a dynamic and ever evolving force to be reckoned with. Powerful instrumentation shifting from heavy to poppy to soulful, accompanied by catchy vocal melodies with emotive lyrical themes of the debauchery of youth and the existential dread that follows, Our Last Daze is reminiscent of the mid-2000’s Emo/Pop-Punk scene.

JunkBunny: Combining hardcore hooks with a reverence for early 2000s pop-punk, JunkBunny’s sound is anthemically massive while still retaining emotional resonance. Compromised of Mac Johnson (Guitar/Vocals), Isaac Moore (Drums), and Seth Reissig (Bass), the Austin-based trio is releasing their debut album Starting Over on May 3rd before hitting the road. Balancing gigs at gritty dive bars with amphitheaters alongside legendary acts like ZZ Top and Jon Bon Jovi, JunkBunny’s emergence has been as swift and visceral as the sounds they continue laboring over in an underground Austin Studio.

Blue Collar Bois: Just two bois makin’ music

Doors 7 | Show 8 | $10
