The musician's read
Backroads Brewing in Nelson is a downtown craft taproom with room for about 105 people, live music and occasional private events. Rock, folk, acoustic and local acts all fit, and the size is big enough to create real crowd energy without losing intimacy. Musicians should expect a social brewery audience but enough musical focus to justify a proper set. All ages are welcome.
