Valencia Grace brings a solo set to Lodge Room.
British-born and “transatlantic-raised,” Grace is a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist making noir-inspired, synth-driven songs with an operatic edge. Their work with producer CJ Baran, whose credits include MARINA, Melanie Martinez and Nessa Barrett, has also been described as “swooning, prog-infused art pop.” XS Noize calls Grace “a very exciting prospect,” praising dark gothic pop full of “drama, emotion and adventure.”
The Lodge Room offers a distinctive live music experience on the second floor of a building in Highland Park, where the room’s modest size brings the stage close to the audience, creating a direct connection with the performers. The venue features a bar but does not serve full meals, encouraging guests to focus on the music while enjoying drinks. Shows typically start in the evening, with doors opening around 7 pm and performances beginning an hour later, often including multiple sets or late-night shows. Seating is limited and generally first come first served, so arriving early can secure a good spot. The space’s walls and layout emphasize the music, making it a place to listen attentively while still allowing for a relaxed social vibe. This venue remains a lively part of the local music scene, hosting a range of artists and styles.
