Presenting a new cafe venue with more sound equipment and progressive personality than you can throw a chai tea latte at: Berkley Coffee. Stopped in this weekend to support genius keys player Jarrod Champion and am certain I’ve never seen anything like this coffee-roasting / non-alcoholic bar / event space.

Which I adore. Even so, I tip my hat to the band for selecting this description on their Facebook page, whichContinue reading “Rediscovering Detroit – Take Ten – The Whiskey Charmers”
If You Can’t Beat ‘Em, Join ‘Em
