At Berkeley Bob's Coffee House we feature live music in two venues. We have Open Mike Nites every first and third Monday from 7-9 PM. Everyone is invited for a fun evening of singing, poetry and storytelling. Bring your guitar, bongos, poems, whatever, and share your talents with us. We like to have two or three Saturday night concerts each month featuring local and out of area musicians and bands highlighting different types of music from folk, bluegrass, Christian, blues, whatever. Last June we added Friday night music for mostly young, local singer songwriters, although we do get some professional traveling groups come through as well. To inquire about a booking call Bob at 256-775-2944. In addition we have karaoke with Roy Moon on the last Friday of the month. All musical events run from 7:00-9:00 PM and are family oriented and free unless noted otherwise. We are licensed for copywrited music by ASCAP, BMI and SESAC.
We also have art on the second Friday of each month, we call it Coffee and Colors. Local artist exraordinaire Laura Walker leads the session and they are always a lot of fun. She has a theme painting, brings all the necessary supplies including a smock to wear, and goes through it step by step. It is limited to 20 people. You definitely do not have to be an artist to enjoy it and you will take a very nice original painting home. Reservations are required and the fee is $25.
