On November 24, 10 a.m. – 11:30 a.m., WTJU 91.1 FM will host a peek into our broadcast studios. This event is FREE.

In the second volume, local journalist and radio DJ Erin O'Hare focuses on two longstanding, homey venues in the Charlottesville music scene: Miller’s and Fellini’s No. 9. As pillars of Charlottesville jazz for over four decades, hosting some of the most longstanding gigs in the country (including a 40-year-long gig led by the renowned trumpeter John D’earth), these venues have helped create one of the best, and most underrated, meccas for jazz on the East Coast. O’Hare perfectly captures both the master musicianship and the intimate hometown atmosphere that these venues, and the artists they support, have fostered. Recommended for those who like the amber reflection of old drug store lights in a saxophone’s bell, the friendly chaos of a folk-jazz-funk fusion group over the din of a late-night crowd, or the sound of an upright piano through the open windows of a homegrown, renowned Italian restaurant.

In this first teaser volume, local journalist and radio DJ Erin O'Hare focuses on Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar, an eclectic venue with an equally eclectic history and cast of characters. As a longstanding non-corporate, open-minded pillar of the Charlottesville music community, Tea Bazaar has for more than twenty years held shows ranging from the strange to the sublime. Full of the personal charm that characterizes Tea Bazaar itself (and a liberal dosage of f-bombs) O'Hare's writing perfectly emulates the ethos of this wonderfully weird, welcoming place.

This bundle offers all volumes of Under the Table and Screaming: volume 1, focusing on Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar, volume 2, focusing on Miller's and Fellini's, volume 3, focusing on Old Cabell Hall & The Paramount Theater, volume 4, focusing on The Front Porch, C'Ville Coffee, and Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, and volume 5, focusing on The Southern, The Bridge, and Magnolia House.
