| - Nifty! Yep, I called it nifty. Located in the heart of NODA, this little gem is home to the best local and regional indie music. All of the hipness, none of the pretense. Its small, so you never feel overwhelmed and the staff aren't pushy like the uptown bars. By the end of the night, you will converse with random strangers and likely meet the band members as they are leaving.
The best thing about this place, other than the ambiance, is their ability to attract quality Indie rock acts. You won't find hard rock, rarely hip hop, and none of that crap they play at Verizon Wireless. The music is original, many starving artists and bands about to drop an album on Itunes. The cover is rarely more than $8 and there are several bands playing a night.
People hate on Charlotte for not having the live music scene like Chapel Hill, Athens, or Knoxville, but the Evening Muse if proof that the Queen City is not without hope.
