Miles Davis once quipped, “I’ll play it first and tell you what it is later.” Butcher Brown has released forward-thinking and expansive hybrids of jazz and hip-hop since 2013. Today, they have an apt descriptor for their songs: solar music. Drawing inspiration from every sound under the sun, the Richmond, VA band adds elements of funk, soul, and rock to their foundational mix. The result is a Southern-leaning, sometimes psychedelic fusion that feels fresh yet familiar.

Aaron Earl Livingston, also known by his stage name Son Little, is an American rhythm & blues musician from Philadelphia. In his solo career, Little’s musical genre — neo-soul — is a contemporary soul fusion of R&B, jazz and hip-hop with passionate vocals and introspective lyrics.

The view from our tree-lined brewery is something special no matter the season. Cool down in the Taproom with a farm-fresh salad and small plates, or soak in the sun on our Back Porch with a beer and a snack. Check out our upcoming events and more! click here
