Just Announced: THE FLESHTONES, THE NEW DUNCAN IMPERIALS, & THE HANDCUFFS at FITZGERALDS Nightclub on Friday, 11/8. Tickets on sale NOW on our website (and in comments below)!

In a world where there are no more heroes, the Fleshtones walk the earth like Roman gods.

It’s Getting Late (…and More Songs About Werewolves) is a smash that could have dropped at any point in The Fleshtones’ epic career — it is an outburst, and a celebration of the SUPER ROCK sound. Unlike their contemporaries, they have not dialed down the tempos to compensate for osteoporosis, they have not lost anything on their fastball, and continue to throw it for strikes. The hardest working band in garage rock has never sounded better, and now you see why they've been your favorite band's favorite band for decades.

THE NEW DUNCAN IMPERIALS celebrate 35 years!

THE HANDCUFFS friggin ROCK.

See y’all there ✋😎

"123 Andrés is back at Fitzgerald's! GRAMMY and Latin Grammy winners bring their high-energy Spanish-English bilingual concert for kids and families. Un concierto lleno de música, energía, familia, y comunidad – music, energy, family, and community – that gets kids and adults to dance and sing along."

Just Announced: The Local Honeys Return to FITZGERALDS Nightclub 11/6! Tickets are on sale now on our website (and in comments below) for this fully seated show.

"Though many artists are defined by place, only a handful of artists come to define the places they’re from. The Local Honeys are Kentucky and Kentucky runs through their veins like an unbridled racehorse. When a master songsmith like Tom T Hall calls an artist “a great credit to a wonderful Kentucky tradition” it’s time to pull up a chair and pay attention. As it pertains to The Local Honeys he was right on the money. For almost a decade the duo (Montana Hobbs and Linda Jean Stokley) have been an integral part of the Kentucky musicscape. They’ve paid their dues, garnering countless accolades and accomplishments (tours with Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, praise from the New York Times) and have become the defining sound of real deal, honest-to-god Kentucky music."

Sonny Landreth- Official and Cindy Cashdollar are absolute American Treasures. (8/29 at FITZGERALDS, SOLD OUT).

We are delighted to announce that out of around 500 guesses, some people guessed the correct Golden Ticket Event Headliner but a lot of people didn't. Why are we "delighted"? Well, for one, that means most of you still don't know WHO IT IS!! And a close second, we are relieved that we didn't "Endless Shrimp" ourselves out of business 😉

THE ONLY WAY that you will know who the 4th Annual GOLDEN TICKET EVENT artists are, is to be there when they play. Tickets in comments below, we hope to see you Friday, 9/6!
