Great atmosphere. I had the privilege to watch Duke Ellington's Band perform. It was my first jazz performance and it was amazing. The tickets were a bit pricey and so were the food. In order to get the tickets you use an online system through Blues Alley. Tickets range from 15 to 50+ depending on the popularity of the band that's performing. I highly recommend experiencing Blues Alley at least once when you're still here at the Hilltop.
"Founded in 1965, Blues Alley is the nation's oldest continuing jazz supper club, having showcased internationally renowned concert hall artists such as Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan, Nancy Wilson, Grover Washington Jr., Ramsey Lewis, Charlie Byrd, Maynard Ferguson and Eva Cassidy in a small intimate setting.
Located in the heart of historic Georgetown in an 18th century red brick carriage house, Blues Alley offers its patrons a unique ambiance, reminiscent of the jazz clubs of the 1920's and 30's.
Open seven days a week, Blues Alley specializes in authentic Creole cuisine, steak and seafood dishes (Dinner served from 6:00 pm). Blues Alley has designed several discounted packages available to groups of twelve or more, and can accommodate up to one hundred and twenty five for dinner and show."
