Embedded Files
Since July 2023, we have hosted a monthly event at the Stones Throw Brewery where we feature three to four local songwriters. Each share their unique stories through music. Enjoy handcrafted tunes and a selection of local beer, wine, cider, and ginger ale. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a lover of lyrics, or simply looking for a great night out, come support a rotating roster of local artists and non-profits. Cheers to the magic of music and the connections it fosters!
The third Friday of every month at 6 pm! Free! Family and dog friendly!

Little Lonely is the brainchild of Julie Cain, an indie folk artist whose music evokes Dust Bowl salvation, roadside general stores and towns submerged in lakes for the sake of progress. Bittersweet, confessional and otherworldly themes imbue her forthcoming ep, in progress at Verdugo Sound in Los Angeles. Little Lonely’s self-titled full-length record is available on all platforms.

Adam and Joan perform original songs on mandolin, and mandola that are highly melodic, upbeat, and, hopefully, with interesting lyrics.

Commitment to community
As a part of our dedication to the community that sustains us, we donate half of the proceeds from each event to various local non-profits on a rotating basis. Your attendance not only empowers these gifted artists but also supports important causes, infusing every note and chord with a deeper sense of purpose. Through shared commitment, we can create a meaningful impact and foster unity within our community.
