✌🏻🎶
Clock out early, dust off the week, and head straight to The Uptowner —your Friday evening plans just sorted themselves out.

We’re kicking off the weekend right with an early show featuring the Greg Klyma Trio from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Expect sharp songwriting, infectious grooves, and an easygoing blend of original tunes and handpicked covers that hit right at that sweet spot between Willie Nelson’s cosmic country soul and Tom Petty’s heartland rock-and-roll swagger.

Whether you’re catching up with friends right after work or anchoring your Friday night early, this is hands-down the best room in town to unwind with real-deal live music in your ears and a cold drink in hand.

Friday Drink Specials:
$2.50 Domestic Cans
$5.00 Seltzers

No cover-charge chaos, no staying up until 2:00 AM just to catch great live tunes—just good people, great songs, and unbeatable drink specials to start your weekend. Grab your crew and get here early to snag a seat!
Cheers! 🍻
