This is it.
Saturday, March 28 — the final night of live jazz at The Emerald Hound.

We’re closing it out the right way with The Mike Valentine Show, featuring Mike and Ronnie, bringing the kind of smooth, timeless sound that built these Saturday nights in the first place.

If you’ve ever said, “we need to go sometime” — this is that time.
If you’ve been part of these nights — you already know what this room feels like when it’s full.

Let’s pack the place. Let’s raise a glass. Let’s give this last set the crowd it deserves.

An Announcement from The Emerald Hound

After many memorable evenings of live music, great conversation, and cocktails shared among friends, Saturday night jazz at The Emerald Hound will come to a close on March 28th and our doors will close a final time.

We’re incredibly grateful for the musicians who brought their talent to our stage and for the patrons who filled the room week after week. What began as a simple idea — a small jazz bar in downtown Somerset — became something truly special because of you.

To celebrate these wonderful nights together, we invite you to join us these last few weekends! Mike Valentine takes the stage on the 28th.

Jazz After Dark.

By the time the sun’s down and the door swings open, the room takes on its own kind of energy. The bar hums, the music settles in, and nobody’s checking the clock.

Saturday nights here are easy. A good drink, live jazz in the background, and a place that feels just right for lingering. Stay for one. Stay for two. That part’s up to you.

Jazz Nights. Every Saturday.

At The Emerald Hound, Saturdays are built around live jazz and an unhurried evening. From 6 PM to midnight, the bar is open, the lights are low, and the music takes center stage.

Live jazz sets the tone early, cocktails carry the night, and the rest unfolds naturally.

Join us in downtown Somerset for a Saturday that sounds as good as it feels.
