JILLI MARTINI and her band are launching the addition of music to Tuesday $5 Burger Nights at the Avalanche.

It’s been a while since there has been weekly live music at the Avalanche.That is about to change.

The pub currently offers nightly activities and entertainment, from karaoke, poker, pool, UFC, dj’s and comedy nights.

The Avalanche has decided to bring back live music, combining the popular ‘Tuesday $5 burger night’ with some great local acts.

The Jilli Martini Band and the Avalanche have teamed up to create the Tuesday showcase night and will kick it off February 21 at 8 p.m.

To launch this weekly series, The Jilli Martini Band will play three sets of music on that first night, but on subsequent Tuesdays, will share the stage with special guests.

Each Tuesday night, The House Band (JMB) will start off by playing the first set, beginning at 8 p.m. The featured artist(s) will then take to the stage for the entire second set, commencing around 9 p.m.

The third set will follow and depending on the featured guest of the night, (and if they wish) it may close with a ‘ jammin-style’ final set with the house band.

The evening will wrap up around 11 p.m. Please note, that this is not a traditional style, open-mic jam. This will be a venue to showcase up and coming artists, as well as accomplished musicians alike, for a full set of their music, as opposed to just a couple of songs.

The musicians will hit the stage at a fixed time ( 9 p.m.), making it convenient for their fan base to come and support and enjoy them.
