The Dakota Tavern is no longer brick and mortar. It wasn’t before it opened but it was always there it seems. Waiting for a community to claim it. Waiting for people to call it their own. There is no new brick and mortar in the cards. But the community exists. If you’d like us to promote your song, or your show regardless of where you are let us know. Coast to Coast, territory to small town, big city to suburb. This community remains a community. A community of singers and songwriters, song and dance troubadours, music lovers and judgers, on lookers and mainstays. We miss each other, we need each other. Let’s use this as a space to stay close. Keep an eye out for a pop up or two.
I love, you love, we love. If you have a song , a show , a thought, an inspired thought, share it here. Let it be a safe space for creativity love and respect. Dm and I’ll post it . That simple. All love everyone.
