At Golden Age Beer Company, we are thrilled to participate in Live Fridays as we see them as an opportunity to showcase our Homestead community by both increasing participation from our fellow community members and increasing visibility of our neighborhood to visitors from around the city.  One of the things that makes us so excited to be a part of Homestead and its renaissance is that we believe that it is happening organically, with stable home prices, and with businesses and people that represent a wide cross section of our diverse community.  We believe that programming for Live Fridays should reflect those values, which is why our bookings range from bluegrass to jazz and include live bands and DJs alike.  Finally, we believe that Homestead  can become a regional epicenter for the arts and for artists, and our commitment to hosting no-cover-charge live music (while also paying musicians well) every weekend is central to our mission here at Golden Age.  We love Live Fridays as it gives us an opportunity to promote our commitment to that cause.

For our first Friday, we have booked Pittsburgh’s premier bluegrass band, The Shameless Hex, will join us from 7-10. The Shameless Hex is a string band based out of Pittsburgh, PA. Their music is a fusion of bluegrass, rock and folk, all done in an Appalachian string band style. They have a variety of songs, both covers and originals, that make them a perfect, fun, and accessible act to kick off this summer’s Live Fridays series. As always, $5 Premium Lagers will be flowing all day long.
