Polecat Tavern at 260 West Winnie Lane in Carson City is excited to announce their Polecat Parking Lot Summer Series of Music. Beginning June 7 and happening every Saturday evening from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., there will be a band playing music in the parking lot.
“We were planning to do this last summer but the road construction on Winnie Lane prevented that. We even had to put off our Grand Opening Party for three weeks,” said Chrissi Barnett, who with her musician husband, Keith Alan Barnett owns Polecat Tavern. “We are so grateful to be able to provide a place for local musicians to showcase their talent.”
Polecat Tavern is open Wednesday through Sunday at 1 p.m., so bring or order in your lunch and you might catch a local band in rehearsal or a soloist performing. There’s live music up to five nights a week.
Some of Polecat Tavern events include: Wednesday afternoon Canyon Club Radio Show Recording, Bluegrass Jam, Thursday Open Mic Nights, Friday Karaoke Nights or ZenDen Open Mic Jams, Saturday Night local and regional performers, Sunday Acoustic Jams and more. They also have Paint & Sip and Bike Night events coming up as well. Some of the local performers come in to use the stage for practice and rehearsals, and the stage is always open if there is no scheduled activity. Sometimes a food truck will be stopping by in the evening as well.
See the lineup below:

The Summer Series will begin on Saturday, June 7 with Keith Alan Barnett & the Lonesome Polecat Band kicking things off. The music will continue each Saturday starting at 6:30 p.m. through August 23 with Mixed Company closing out the series.
