listening experience for live music and unique cultural events, fostering a close connection between artists and
audiences.
Now transformed into a state-of-the-art music venue, it offers a unique atmosphere that blends the charm of the past with the innovation of the present. When guests arrive, they are greeted by large, industrial wooden doors and a gleaming "Hamilton" sign, signaling that they are about to experience something special. Inside, the space is both whimsical and welcoming, with a 30x30 cyclorama on the stage and vintage string lights illuminating the room. It's a true supper club vibe. Don Hamilton’s stunning photography graces the walls, creating a gallery-like experience. Comfortable seating, intimate candlelit tables, and a small bar complete the setting, ensuring that both artists and attendees are immersed in an unforgettable, high-quality experience. The venue is ADA accessible, centrally located with easy public transportation access, and offers free street parking, making it open and accessible to the Spokane community. What makes The Listening Room the best best acoustics you'll ever hear is because in 1980, the owner, Don Hamilton, turned it into a motion picture sound stage with complete sound insulation of the entire building. It was built to run as a photography and film production studio but it turns out the space was also made perfect for live performances.
