The Southgate House Revival Concerts 2025

A renovated church. A few stages to perform on. One main room for act and smaller stages for newer acts. Good place to hear music and get a drink. Pool table available.

First time at this venue. Nice setup. Downstairs there was a bar. A small stage was there. I'm told they have open mic night a couple times a week. Several guitar players, and other musicians were gearing up to play. I'm an open mic fan so I'll come back to jam sometime. My gal and I came here to see Luther Van and the Floods, and the headliner Popa Chubby. I ordered tickets on line. It was $5 per ticket cheaper. I had the choice of having the tickets sent to me, or hold at the Will Call. I chose Will Call. I checked out several acts on the Web site. There's no set ticket price and it varies depending on the performer. We paid $20 each ticket, but I saw prices as low as $12 and high as $25. The website said tickets held at the Will Call could be picked up starting at 5pm. The show was to start at 7:30. We were not able to get Will Call tickets until 7pm. Not a big deal, but don't be surprised if the same happens to you. At 7pm we hopped in line, had a color wrist band. We went upstairs into an old church sanctuary. The natural reverb sounded great. As a sound man, it would be a challenge. But the sound guy did fantastic. The lights and acoustics were a bonus. The stained glass windows added to the ambience. We sat at a small table. In the rear of the room was a bar, complete with a pipe organ. The opening act was Luther Van and the Floods. I really liked them. Good energy by the band, and a music style that a Tarantino film would love. Popa Chubby was the best guitar act I've witnessed. He played so much emotion and talented thru his guitar... Words can't describe. Will definitely return.

This place has a really interesting atmosphere. We enjoyed the show we saw, the sound was great, and they had a great drink selection. Looking forward to going back.

My husband and I often attend concerts all over the tri-state area. We live in Ohio. We frequent WV, KY Indy, and MI frequently as well. We enjoy a wide variety of genres and styles. A show can be an experience like no other. We are constantly chasing that sound, that feeling that resonates in your body. Tuesday was our first time at Southgate House Revival House. I had researched Southgate beforehand quite a bit. We've tried to visit several times before but our schedules never worked out. We've been lucky enough to hear some of the artists that frequent Southgate in our own homes and at incredible venues around the state. I now want to hear every person I've ever seen, in concert, at Southgate House! The acoustics, and the space = perfection. Lighting = lovely ambiance. Beautiful, full, filling sound. Daniel Mason, singer, told us beforehand, "Just wait, it sounds incredible in there. This is the best I've ever heard Rachel." Daniel has toured the world extensively over the years with various artists. I knew I was in for a treat! However, Southgate superseded my expectations. Amazingly easy parking on site! Great outdoor area in the heart of everything that's Newport. Gorgeous architecture. Inside and out. So many unique details to study, if you have the chance. There are quite a few steps up to the upstairs stage. It's worth it once at the top. The mural above is a beautiful sight. It almost seems hidden in plain view. Such a cool space. Comfortable. I really enjoyed how the tables were set up to seat 2 or 4. The staff was amazingly friendly. I appreciated every pleasant encounter. The bathroom! Wow. I knew to expect some coolness in the bathroom. I always enjoy peeping at the stickers and art at venues. Southgate's upstairs and downstairs bathrooms were awesome. In addition, they smelt wonderful and were incredibly clean. I am so impressed by this. As well as everything beginning and ending promptly. That cannot always be timed out. That is teamwork and communication at its best. We were off work at 5 on Tuesday. At the venue by 7:30 and out by 10:15. It is possible to have fun on a random weekday. As parents with full-time jobs, we appreciate these midweek adventures. You can tell everyone takes great pride in their work and wants you to have the best experience. We already have plans to be back this fall. Thank you for an incredible Tuesday evening show.

John R. Miller put on a wonderful show. The venue is so perfect for intimate performances.
