blues club
Live music bar
A blues club is a venue—typically a bar or small concert hall—featuring live blues music.
Unlike jazz clubs or rock venues, blues clubs tend toward intimate, informal atmospheres where performers and audience share close quarters: We caught a great set at a blues club on the South Side.
The term evokes sweaty rooms, wailing guitars, and late nights.
