Vinyl Nights DJ, Mabis, makes a return to the turntable with a curated selection of “Hits That Won’t Quit” – prepare for a set riddled with popular classics from every era and genre. Mabis will spin tunes from 7pm-10pm on The Lakely Patio – rain or shine, but we’ll move inside The Lakely if it rains!

Mabis spins to please, so expect to hear a tune or two that you adore. His vinyl obsession and wide-ranging collection wouldn’t be possible without Revival Records. Cheers, Billy!

The Lakely opens for drinks and dinner at 5pm, so come early for farm-to-fork fare and craft cocktails before the event kicks off! Reservations are appreciated, but not required.

Get ready to kick up your boots at Vinyl Nights: “Jordy’s Honky Tonk Jukebox” on The Lakely Patio! DJ Jordy will spin a mix of classic old school country (Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, Dolly Parton, etc) as well as contemporary Americana/alt-country (Charley Crockett, Waxahatchee, Margo Price, Orville Peck) with some stuff that falls somewhere in-between thrown in for good measure (Townes Van Zandt, John Prine, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young). DJ Jordy will be joined at the turntables by Matt Vold of Eau Claire band and recent Blue Ox performers, Pit Wagon!

Tunes run from 7pm-10pm on The Lakely Patio – rain or shine, but we’ll move inside The Lakely if it rains! Break out your favorite boots and cowgirl/boy hats — folks are encouraged to sport their favorite western wear!

DJ BIO:

“I listen to everything but country music” is something I’ve long heard from many of my friends, and I’ve decided to take that as a challenge. I want to push back on people’s preconceived notions on what country music is and help show folks that have previously dismissed it that it’s nothing to condescend, and that in actuality it’s a rich and wonderful part of American culture. I hope to demonstrate that country music is not only a lot of fun but absolutely deserving of respect and to be seen as credible art. It’s with this mission in mind that I present “Jordy’s Jukebox” at The Lakely.
