Your cab driver might not know how to find it. If you're walking (which is totally do-able), you might start wondering if you're lost ... but fear not! The Hideout is located in the middle of a barren stretch of warehouses and train tracks, and it's the friendliest little music venue you'll ever step into.

Showcasing independent local and traveling acts, the Hideout also runs a summertime Block Party that might just be the best summer festival in the city (which is saying a lot).
