The Best Venues for Emerging Artists in North Carolina

The Best Venues for Emerging Artists in North Carolina

Have yourself a hootenanny at the most exciting venues for new artists. Cat's Cradle is a crucible of new talent, while the Evening Muse stitches together the local music scene.

  • 1. Cat's Cradle

    Situated just a mile from the University of North Carolina, Cat's Cradle has fostered new talents throughout its 40-year history. An intimate setting, yet large enough to generate a buzz, Cat's Cradle's 750-fan capacity is optimal for garnering interest in the latest sounds. Headliners over the years have included big (yet still rebellious) acts such as Iggy Pop, Nirvana, and Public Enemy.

  • 2. The Backstreet Pub

    Once a 100-year-old bakery, the Backstreet now spills blues sounds onto the beach. Funk, rock, and blues bands jam pleasingly at this historic haven. Wednesday Hoot Nite sees local musicians assemble for improv sessions in the atmospheric courtyard.

  • 3. The Grey Eagle

    While Asheville is known as the craft beer capital of the state, it's also home to the Grey Eagle, a celebrated career catalyst. Ensconced in the culture-packed surrounds of the River Arts District, the venue is a center for the local community, where eclectic live music is enjoyed along with Mexican cuisine and cocktails.

  • 4. The Evening Muse

    Grassroots musical acts find a spiritual home at The Evening Muse in Charlotte's NoDa neighborhood, which inspires all comers by showcasing dynamic local music stars. The Muse's owner, Joe Kuhlman, may have achieved his ambition to establish the city's best local music venue – come see for yourself.
