TINY GLASS TAVERN (featuring Sophie Michaux)
TINY GLASS TAVERN is an eclectic, cross-genre ensemble based in Massachusetts.
Led by vocalist Sophie Michaux, Tiny Glass Tavern features a rotating constellation of performers, presenting a broad selection of music that spans genres and languages. Tiny Glass Tavern is a joyful celebration of musical variety, texture, and experimentation.
A typical Tiny Glass Tavern performance is intimate and interactive – that’s the tavern part. Enter their warm, welcoming space, and pour yourself a little drink or ten, sampling sips of early and Romantic repertoire, Italian madrigals, French chansons, new compositions, and more. You’ll hear folk songs, and pop music performed in delightfully unexpected arrangements.
This Tiny Glass Tavern show will feature a lute, baroque and romantic guitars, upright bass, mandolin, and maybe even accordion. The heart of a Tiny Glass Tavern is the voice. With a vividly-colorful and expressive instrument, Michaux herself has performed across the country with the Haymarket Opera Company, Lorelei Ensemble, Roomful of Teeth, and more.
Tiny Glass Tavern’s debut albumLet Us Dance, Let Us Singcame out on PARMA Recordings in April 2025. So pull up a chair, take off your coat, and let them pour you a tiny glass of something delightful, unexpected, and wonderful.

Shpilkis & A Gleyzele Tey: Potluck and Music
Potluck, A Gleyzele Tey, and Shpilkis
Potluck starts at 5:30
Music starts at 6:30
Shpilkis is Seattle’s slammin’ klezmer brass band bringing you old-school Yiddish grooves with tuchus-shaking energy.
A Glezele Tey (Yiddish for “a little glass of tea”) invites you into their living room for a little glass of tea from the samovar, bringing audiences into an intimate and enthralling world of klezmer, Yiddish folk song, and tkhines (traditional Ashkenazi prayers centering the experiences of women, trans, and gender non-conforming people, set to new melodies). Drawing from old recordings and contemporary culture rooted in the Eastern European Jewish diaspora, A Glezele Tey’s music is an act of deep care—rooted in community gathering, lineage, and ritual, we lift our collective voices to move through grief, inspire action, and build a frayer velt (a freer world).
