Happy New Year

2025 was a wild ride thanks to the über-passionate music fans like you who refused to let the party fizzle out. No fans, no venues, no local music scene - it's that ridiculously simple. So, thanks for showing up, because performing to a bunch of empty chairs would've been super cringeworthy. Cheers to finally mastering the art of writing “2026” instead of “2025” by April, cheers to New Year, New You Resolutions that you'll probably ditch by February, and cheers to another year of amazing fans supporting local music and local businesses. Much love!

THIS Friday, January 2, 2026 - Kick off 2026 with a bang at Depauville Hotel’s Open Mic Night at 8 P.M. Hosted by Singer-Songwriter Shawn Stoddard / BackWater Entertainment, this is your chance to showcase your talent in comedy, music, magic, poetry, spoken word, or Karaoke to a live audience at the only pub in the dip.

THIS Sunday, January 4, 2026 - Don't be a buzzkill, squeeze every last drop of fun out of the first weekend of 2026 at Raquette River Pub’s Sunday Funday Live Music Series from 2 PM to 5 PM. Stuff your face with grub, guzzle cold drinks, and get down to live acoustic tunes from Singer-Songwriter Shawn Stoddard.
