Sunshine, road trips, beach bonfires, windows down, and songs that somehow smell like sunscreen. This month's Cocktail Karaoke theme is Summer Songs. Whether you're belting out The Beach Boys, Jimmy Buffett, Sheryl Crow, Kenny Chesney, Lana Del Rey, DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, or that one song that instantly transports you to your …

A very special Turntable Tuesday is coming up.

BOOK CLUB is back this month, and we’re heading to Puerto Rico with Xavier Navarro Aquino’s Velorio. Set in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, Velorio follows a group of young survivors who gather around an idealistic leader promising them something better amid the wreckage. What begins as refuge slowly becomes something stranger and darker—a novel …
This month, Cocktail Karaoke is getting a little louder, a little dirtier and possibly earning us a concerned phone call from somebody’s mother. SHOUT AT THE DEVIL: Songs That Made Your Parents Nervous You know the stuff - from Elvis Presley to Kiss to Ozzy to Motley Crue to D. Dre. The records they thought …
You may remember them as The Crawling Madisons. Well, same gang. Same rock & roll heart. New name. Meet The Low Horses. They’re riding back into Speak of the Devil on Saturday, September 19, bringing that same rootsy, rockabilly, blues-tinged racket we had such a damn good time with the last time around. New name. …
Our last patios cigar night of the year! Where has the summer gone!?
It’s been a while since our old friend Cole Davidson has played this little room of ours, and we’re genuinely happy to have him back. Cole comes out of the New England indie-folk world, playing this beautifully intricate fingerstyle guitar and writing songs that somehow manage to feel warm and a little dark at the …
Our friend Mezz Recipe is coming back to play the bar. If you caught Mezz last time, you already know—bluesy, soulful, a little gritty and pretty much perfect for our little room. If you didn’t, well, here’s your chance. Bluesy, soulful and funky. Not to be missed!
Our friend Teddy Eisenberg returns to the booth Saturday, October 10, and we’re just going to get the hell out of his way. Teddy digs deep. Weird cuts. World groove. Jazz. Hip hop. Garage rock. Soul. Funk. Things you know but haven’t heard in forever. Things you’ve never heard and suddenly need to know everything …
Sunday soupday with the best ramen around!
Another vinyl night event! Bring a platter or pick a platter from our crates!
Cocktail Karaoke is back, and this time the theme is simple: SONGS THE WHOLE DAMN ROOM WILL SING ALONG TO. You know the ones. The songs where somewhere around the first chorus it stops being your karaoke song and suddenly 40 strangers are singing backup like you’ve all been rehearsing together for months. Journey. Dolly. …
Our friend—and Lorain’s own—akaFayaven of aka & co. is doing something a little different at Speak of the Devil. On Saturday, October 17, he’s stripping things back for a very special UNPLUGGED evening. No big production. No wall of sound. Just the songs, the voice, the keys, and that little bit of magic that happens …
Sunday soupday with the best ramen around!
The Dirty Little Blues Band is coming back to Speak of the Devil. And these boys do not come to sit quietly in the corner. This is rockabilly, jump blues and greasy old rock ’n’ roll played the way God and several juvenile delinquents intended it—loud, loose, swinging and just a little dangerous around the …
