Irwin Music


   Historic Irwin has some nice music.  Irwin's chapter of the Moose holds live music upstairs.  Main Street Music and the Music Room provide lessons just a couple hundred yards from each other.  The borough is trying to reopen the dilapidated Lamp Theater. Further down the street, Cafe Supreme offers live music.

   Cafe Supreme is divided into two levels:  The restaurant and the "down under."  Down under, they host birthday parties with DJs and other forms of live entertainment.  Every Wednesday evening holds an open mic night upstairs.

  A sharp divide exists among Cafe goers:  The old crowd, and the rough young crowd.  The older crowd loves the old jazz and blues fellow blue hairs croon to, while the young crowd, typically burnouts that just passed high school cheer on newer tunes.

  I performed at Cafe Supreme for the first time last Wednesday with my sister.  We performed right before fellow North Huntingdon guitarist/singer/recent graduate Cody Thornton.  Today, we return to Cafe Supreme,  armed with a couple new songs.
