We are excited to announce that, after leaving the audience of the Birmingham Folk Festival wanting more, Curley Taylor and his band will return to Birmingham on Friday, October 17th and take the stage at Woodlawn Theatre at 8pm! For those of you that have not been to Woodlawn Theatre, it was a neighborhood cinema from 1929-1957, was beautifully renovated with a large stage, open floor plan (for both seating and room to dance), and full bar. Woodlawn Theatre has been operating as an independent music venue and event space since 2023 and is conveniently located (5503 1st Ave N). There is on-street parking and two (2) free municipal parking lots nearby.
