A rare night of music, celebrating the best of singer-songwriters in Folk/Americana from opposite ends of the Appalachian mountains! This is not the first time falllift and Mike McKenna Jr. have crossed paths, sharing their stories and beautifully crafted songs of Cape Breton Island, North Carolina (SE USA), and their travels through life.
Purchase advance tickets on SHOWPASS HERE ($25 plus tax and fees) OR at the door while quantities last ($30 plus tax)
Dinner is available with our kitchen open until 9pm. Reservations are strongly suggested—make yours HERE. We are an intimate 85-seat venue, so every seat is a great seat! While we do our best to accommodate all seating requests, they cannot be guaranteed. For the best experience, we recommend making reservations in even numbers (for example, a party of three may be seated with an additional guest). Doors open half an hour before showtime for those who will not be dining with us.
fallift
Born out of weekly writing sessions during the pandemic, falllift is the collaborative project of Micah Cottingham and William Steven Hall. What began as a creative outlet soon evolved into a way of life grounded in trust, balance, and a shared commitment to growth. Since their debut E.P. Sunday Sessions in 2022, falllift has released several singles, completed three national tours, a Euro tour, and earned multiple sync placements. Their music blends introspective storytelling with powerful sonic landscapes, addressing themes from personal growth to social justice. Their latest 2025 single, All Salt—featuring multi-award-winning poet Bluz— is a call for change in our broken system. A full-length album is expected late 2027. When not making music, falllift is rooted in community, nature, and their beloved dog, Lola.
