Main Street Bar & Grill

Aside from Murphy’s Place, restaurants of all sizes offer a host of local and regional musical acts virtually every night of the week. “We are definitely the beneficiary of being in the center of all these major cities,” says Carroll. “It’s such an easy stop on the road.”

Carroll, who has been with The Jazz Brunch for 14 years, recommends a rotating list of performers, who can be heard throughout the week at popular local spots such as the Main Street Bar & Grill in Sylvania, which regularly features Ragtime Rick and the Chefs of Dixieland. The six-piece traditional jazz band can usually be found there on Wednesday nights, entertaining lucky locals and out-of-towners with New-Orleans-style jazz.
