New Orthodox / Jed Willis / Mike Johnson plays Static Age Records on Thursday, November 12 at 8:30 PM. Easy one to plan a night around.

Grab dinner beforehand since the bar only covers drinks, kombucha to beer, but nothing to eat. Doors at 8pm gives you time to browse the record store half before bands start around 8:30, so fuel up early and you're set for the night.

Static Age Records is a beloved independent record store and live music venue located in Asheville’s bustling North Lexington Avenue corridor. Celebrated for its curated selection of vinyl, tapes, and music memorabilia, the shop specializes in punk, metal, and underground genres while also offering classic rock and wide-ranging finds.
