The Cellar Door was an iconic and beloved club in Georgetown that between 1963-82 presented the best in folk, blues, rock, jazz, comedy and anything else that was making waves. Despite having only about 150 seats, some of the artists who performed there loved it so much they returned several times a year while others (Miles Davis, Neil Young, The Seldom Scene) recorded live albums there. The Cellar Door Tribute show will feature performances by several artists who regularly performed at The Cellar Door and by others  who will be paying tribute to some of the icons who played there.

About the After Dark Fund and Newmyer Flyer                              

The After Dark Fund is a non profit group dedicated to assisting musicians from the DC/MD/VA area in need of financial help due to illness or surgeries.

NBC4 Washington reporter Mark Segraves’ father John Segraves was a music critic for the Washington Star newspaper, writing the After Dark column covering the live music nightclub scene for nearly two decades. Segraves wrote several hundred reviews of Cellar Door shows going back to the 1960’s and 70’s and would often take Mark along, spurring his interest in how music is presented. Since its inception in 2018, The After Dark Fund has distributed thousands of dollars to local musicians and stage crew.

Ron Newmyer is the co-founder of BandHouse Gigs and started a second concert production company, Newmyer Flyer in 2013 to pay tribute to important musical artists, albums and eras. Newmyer Flyer and BandHouse Gigs shows have performed more than 50 different shows to sold out audiences at The Warner Theater, The Hamilton, Strathmore, The Fillmore, The Birchmere, and since 2004.
