One can't talk about the Charleston music scene without first mentioning The Empty Glass, 410 Elizabeth St. Legends have played there, and legends have been made there for decades.
It is the proverbial bar that just won't die. You need a variety? They got it. Are you looking to discover some new sounds? Drop in at the Glass on any given night, and you'll be treated to a quality performance every time. In fact, that's always been the secret to their success.
They only book the best, most interesting, acts on a consistent basis. They have a great sounding PA system, excellent bartenders and an unusual cast of music-loving regulars that will keep you coming back time and time again. Truly, it's one of West Virginia's best, if not the best, place to go for live music.
