Celebrating 25 years in Charlotte’s NoDa neighborhood this spring, The Evening Muse () has become one of the city’s most beloved live music venues and a cornerstone of the independent music community.

Since opening in 2001, the intimate venue has welcomed everyone from emerging local artists to internationally known acts. Known for its welcoming atmosphere, great sound, and deep commitment to original music, The Evening Muse continues to be one of Charlotte’s most beloved spaces for discovering live music.

Part of that longevity comes from the dedicated team that has helped shape the venue since the very beginning, including Joe Kuhlmann at the helm, Laurie Koster booking talent, Don Koster handling the books, and Chris Koster managing the bar.

This week’s Artist of the Week is Lily of the Sea!

is the project of mixed media artist and musician Lily McMahan, based between Charlotte and New York City. Drawing from the rawness of ’90s grunge and the visual language of folk art and mythology, her work creates an immersive, layered world.

Through both sound and visuals, she explores themes of climate grief, femininity, and the connection between body and environment. Using natural dyes, secondhand textiles, and slow-making techniques, every element of the project is intentionally crafted, blurring the line between music and art.
