Off Broadway is one of St Louis's dependable small music venues, a brick-walled room where touring roots, indie, country and rock acts play close to the crowd. It is not polished, and that is part of the appeal: this is a place for a real gig rather than a packaged night out.
For travellers, it is worth checking the calendar if you want to hear the city after dark beyond the obvious blues-and-tourist circuit. The venue sits south of downtown, close enough to combine with Cherokee Street or Soulard, but you will want to plan transport for the end of the night.
