We will be moving in late March and hope to be settled in the new digs by April 1. That new address will be 195 W. 600 S., directly behind Top Spot, next to Parts Plus.

We held our last show on the Groovacious stage last Friday night with our friends Bottled Monkey. We’d love to extend a warm and deserved THANK YOU to everyone who came out. It was a huge success and was definitely a bittersweet moment. We certainly want to thank Brian Hoover, Chuck Triplett, Dennis Green and Steven Swift of the band for putting on such a great show and for being such great pals. They make the Cedar City music scene better. Love you guys!
