On the morning of December 2nd the Sly Grog Lounge suffered a fire that destroyed most of the structure. The Sly Grog was a favorite spot for many in Asheville to enjoy live music. Over 90 acts were scheduled to perform there in 2022.

We wanted to check in with owner Theo Crouse-Mann to hear how the community has stepped up and how we can continue to help this music venue rebuild.

Hear the interview with Sly Grog’s owner Theo below.

A benefit show will be held this Saturday, January 8th at The Odditorium from 1p-7p with a suggested $10 donation.
