Venue review

The musician's read

Chayz Lounge brings live music to Columbia, South Carolina with an All Ages door policy and room for roughly 80. Relocating to Durham, NC at the end of 2026. Chayz Lounge is a boutique destination designed for lingering, where refined wine, curated sound, and chef-driven selections shape the experience. Artists working in Jazz, R&B, and Soul fit Chayz Lounge’s stated range. Chayz Lounge handles booking by email, and submissions should include an EPK and no phone follow-up. The available PA and production support at Chayz Lounge are not confirmed; settle those requirements before accepting the date. Chayz Lounge’s seated capacity detail should be factored into the stage and audience plan. A pitch to Chayz Lounge should focus on musical fit, available dates, and the practical shape of the proposed show.
