Eddie's Attic is a popular live music venue for aspiring and accomplished performing songwriters. Located in Decatur Georgia a small, artist-friendly town within the metro Atlanta area - a cultural blend of Berkeley and Mayberry. A "listening room" with a superior sound system/acoustics, where customers are asked to silence cell phones and actually listen to the songs, has made the Attic's music room a hit with music enthusiasts. Eddie's Attic draws both fans and artists from all over the world, and continues to be one of the premier music venues in the South. On any given night, music lovers can hear talented performing songwriters and bands playing original music in an intimate setting. The Attic welcomes all varieties of original, live music and embraces the diversity that allows independent music to thrive.
The Attic's covered rooftop grill, which is a separate physical space from the music room, has been the center of the community for over 16 years and remains the friendliest spot in Decatur. Both spaces offer consistently outstanding food and drink.
In its first 16 years Eddie's Attic has been the springboard for an amazing number of local artists who have gone on to receive national recognition - names like John Mayer, Sugarland, Shawn Mullins, Josh Joplin, Billy Pilgrim, Kristen Hall, Caroline Aiken, Michelle Malone, and Matthew Kahler. |
