Signage arrived yesterday for Lucinda's Honky Tonk + Juke Joint at 169 Avenue A between 10th Street and 11th Street.
The venue is described as a "Soulful Southern Honky Tonk" on Instagram.
The ownership is said to be Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams, Brownies and Lakeside Lounge co-founder Laura McCarthy, and songwriter and manager Kelley Swindall.
Moving forward, Lucinda's will host live country music on Friday nights, live-band karaoke on Saturdays and a jukebox "stacked with country faves through the ages."
Lucinda's is hosting a test run this weekend (details here).
Here's a first look inside Lucinda's, where crews were busy setting up the stage and adding more framed photos, including some by Danny Clinch, to the walls
The space was most recently occupied by Heaven Can Wait (b. 2022), which went dark earlier this year.
The lounge/small music venue has seen several concepts in recent years, including Coney Island Baby, Lola and East Berlin. The address was previously EVG favorites HiFi (2002-2017) and the indie live music venue Brownies (1989-2002).
