On urythang, this feels like waiting to open the new shoes you know you’re getting for Christmas. This Tuesday is the premier of “Upper Room Tuesdays” at Twelve Restaurant and lounge! Thank you
This is the last night the Upper Room will be hosted downstairs in the lounge at Twelve Restaurant & Lounge. I will be the final feature before we literally take it to The Upper Room. Join me and Mark “The Professor” Hatcher and Wanda McDonald and we do a guitar and vocals set of some of my favorite joints on the Circumlocution Vol II project. This is where you go to experience the upper echelon of food, drink and entertainment in Washington DC. Located in the historic H Street corridor, The Upper is is the perfect evening out with guests for fine dining and a tasty helping of DC’s finest artist. This week is our last occupying the downstairs bar area with DJ Live Wyah and special guest every night. Shout out to Juno Brown, Patrick Washington and Javier Starks for being our guests artists the last few weeks.
