Loosey's - Downtown Gainesville Loosey's is all about American craft beer, live music, quality food, and a great, casual atmosphere. We like to keep it simple.
(1211)

Everything on our menu is homemade because we believe in real food. Our beer is selected from breweries across the USA because we believe it’s the best in the world. And we book most of our shows from Gainesville’s amazing crop of musicians because we believe in supporting local art. Whether you’re here to drink, eat or listen, thanks for coming to Loosey’s!

🪩 GUESS WHAT! 🪩

Every Thursday, for over two years now, we have a series of shows called Indie Demolition Night. And this coming Thursday is going to be the ONE HUNDREDTH one!!! So of course we're gonna throw a big party :)

Featuring some of Gainesville's finest:

Dude, Chill
Wesli Avidan
Dense Blazing Star
Dumpster
Dreambox
Alex Willow

And the cherry on top: Hobby will be vending!

We're doing bands on the inside stage you know and love, and solo artists outside on our BRAND NEW Streatery. Come check it out :)

Every band on this lineup has been a huge supporter of this series for a long time, and a few of them even played their first shows at an Indie Demolition Night! We're honored to host all of them at this celebration of Gainesville's music community.

Y'all know the drill: 8:00, and always FREE!!! Plus: this is doubling as our Halloween show, so come in costume ;)
