Clubs to visit
Mojo. Rbeiz building, Hamra Street Established to promote live jazz and blues music in
Lebanon. The idea behind the club, situated in the heart of Hamra
Street, came from MUSIKUEST, a Lebanese booking agency that brought jazz
and blues artists from the US to Lebanon since 2000. Mojo is the club that will continue bringing such
artists to perform for the Lebanese public. It is EAST meets WEST when
the visiting international artist is backed by resident artists to form a
unique combination. It is the best performances of NYC jazz clubs moved
into Lebanon for the Lebanese public to enjoy. Live music is the reason
behind the existence of MOJO CLUB. http://www.mojo-beirut.com/
Bar Louie. Gemmayze Gouraud Street Live Music: 6 nights a week ranging from jazz, blues to
soft rock and oriental by the best Lebanese bands and a d.j. night on
Saturdays. Louies initial idea was to be a relaxing Jazz restaurant and
pub serving diverse tapas with a Jazzy background, and a bunch of
uniquely made cocktails So to launch a News-Worthy opening in a
ghost-like street, Bar Louie decided to import the Jazz Flutist (Nicole
Mitchel from New York) which hit the Lebanese Jazz lovers in the deepest
central vein making them love it and ask for more live Jazz and
eventually Blues bands. Furthermore Bar Louie started getting local and
foreign band]
Hip Cat. Monot - Under the Bridge. A marvellous venue and a cosy atmosphere to enjoy
the enchanting tunes of live jazz bands while savoring cold cuts &
sipping on your favourite drink or cocktail. The band starts at 10:00 pm.
Blue Note Cafe. Makhoul Street, Hamra. A great place to listen
to Jazz starting 10:30 PM. Good food! http://www.bluenotecafe.com/
