The Jaybirds

John Reischman's Jaybirds Trio was the last act to perform at The Roxy. This is a snap from their second set so locals, you're looking at some of the final notes played in our beloved venue.

Sunday Signage > The Roxy

With heavy hearts, Gabriolans last week bid goodbye to a cherished institution as The Roxy closed its doors and ceased to be. We wish Stevie B all the best for down the road and say THANKS for a great run. Truly, one of the best small venues ever. Check in tomorrow for a snap from the final concert and go here to view a slideshow of past performances.

Summer!
