There is lots of outdoor seating (tables and picnic tables) and an out outdoor bar. The bonus is that the sun sets on the other side of the cinema building and most of the seating area is shaded. They have a variety of musicians play different types of music (country, folk, pop, etc). Get there around 6:45pm for a seat up front and check the website for the lineup.

Apparently there is live music pretty often and the performer today was very good. Hudson's is worth a return visit when the crush of a huge crowd doesn't make enjoying the place more challenging.

Just wanted to update my Yelp review for the Skylark Lounge since it had been over 5 yrs from my…read moreprevious review left back in 2019. Skylark Lounge is still a great spot to check out live music & we recently saw The Reverent Few band and Brian Scartocci perform on 09/21/2024 ( see the videos included in this review of the live action!) For those who have never been to Skylark before here are a few highlights - This venue does have several tables & booths inside however, it isn't very big inside so I would definitely recommend you get there a bit earlier to grab a table. Parking is free. No food options to order. Clean restrooms! Small dance floor to get your groove on!! Till next time! Rebecca

A friend asked me was I interested in listening tosome live music tonight. Absolutely! First stop…read morethe Continental Club on S. Congress. This place is an Austin institution and one of the best places in the city to experience live music. This historic venue has been a local hangout for great music since the 1950s. The club was dimly lit with lots of stickers, graffiti, neon signage, paintings and interesting artifacts. While it has been a long time since I have been to the Continental club, it still felt truly Austin and very unpretentious. In the Continental Club you are literally I feet away from the live music. A dog was sleeping on stage, which made the place feel homey. The club is small and intimate, exuding a super personal persona. In addition, the sound quality is excellent for such a small venue. Tonight we listened to Hot Club Cowtown...they sounded folksy and a bit country western yet enjoyable to listen to. Folks were boot scooting, so maybe more country western. Mike the doorman was super personable and helpful. He happily provided the WIFI password and was super engaging. In addition, it is important to note the cover was free until 9 pm. The crowd was a mix bag...locals, tourists, and musicians who love live music. Austin is affectionately known as the "Live Music Capitol of the World". Great music...great time!

From the street level, you walk down steps to enter the club. This basement club delivers an authentic jazz experience. The dim lighting, narrow long room, and close seating create an intimate atmosphere. Live jazz musicians are hosted every night of the week, often with multiple sets, featuring a mix of local musicians, rotating house bands, and visiting musicians. Because of the tight space, you are always close to the stage. Tonight's headliner was the Concept Orchestra. Cover tonight was $7. Cocktails range $14-16. The room was pretty tightly packed creating positive vibes.

There's this little stretch with food spots and craft beer joints you can wander between. I went on a Friday afternoon thinking it would be chill... nope. Place was already hopping. Beers were ice cold, the outdoor space in the back is huge, and it's the perfect starter spot before you "accidentally" turn your quick drink into a whole evening.

Band that was playing, phenomenal. I'm sorry I didn't get their name. But they rocked the music and the audience was eating it up. Journey! Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty, Elton John, No Doubt, Pink. Lady Gaga. All the stuff that gets you in a good mood. It was blazing hot and humid, but the breeze was fantastic. I got the watermelon colada. Didn't have a strong watermelon taste. But the coconut part of the drink was refreshing. I thought it was a great drink overall. I also got the chicken quesadilla. I wish I took a picture of it. But I was starved. It was cut up in triangles with sour cream and salsa in small containers. Was delicious. And would totally get it again. Great food. Great drink, fantastic band. Wish we had a waitress though.
