I came here with a personal friend and was immediately astonished at the amount of culture and sheer possibilities that this wonderful place has to offer. I sadly am not able to see every show but I would if I could! Come here if you like Jazz, Classical, Blue grass, a great time, drinks, a little snack, or just want to try something new and support not only local musicians but great music. I strongly recommend trying to come out and enjoy a concert or two and then telling your friends to come as well. Luckily they have a flexible schedule of concerts throughout the week usually each week featuring performers young and old. I plan to come here as often as possible and you should too!

Who would have thunk it, An Austin TX style music club right there on Main Street in Rock Hall? This place is intimate and top notch with a variety of music. We caught The Thee Divas, three ladies who know how to make jazz come alive and then enjoyed Three ladies from Patagonia the next. The talent is top notch and the setting perfect. The only knock is the crowd tends towards the retired. A little mix in age would bring some much needed lift to the place.

Went to the Mainstay as part of the Rockhall Festival and the venue was quaint and they had a variety of performers. It's not upscale but you aren't looking for that in a small eastern shore waterfront town.

Jewel box of a music venue. I just saw Stephan Wrembel, the keeper of everything Django Rheinhardt. Stephan's performance was an amazing combination of lecture and context of Django's career and influence on the world. Of course, Stephan Wrembel is true to the genre and has absolutely expanded on it with his own formidable talent. The Mainstay is opening a new outdoor annex. Get out there and support them. Very reasonable prices. A real community. World class artists. I really don't know how they do it. Don't miss an opportunity to check them out!

Great, unique, intimate venue for a variety of music in a small, Chesapeake Bay waterfront town. This was Mardi Gras night with Zydeco music.

We LOVE The Mainstay! Music is superb, amazing variety over each month, something sure to please every music lover. Relaxed, inexpensive, & Becky's Bar gives a great pour! The new addition of Joe Holt's Mainstay Mondays is fabulous -- we have been thrilled each Monday evening at 7 with the amazing "New York caliber" of each of the many guest performers, and, of course, Joe himself, who is a local treasure. And a $10.00 cover charge? Astounding! Thanks for being here, so close to home, Mainstay 💜

Great local music venue with some great acts. Small, casual and cheap. Bar and snacks available. We will go now that the proof of Vax and mask requirements are gone.

Always great shows, great variety. Small venue, cozy atmosphere. Eclectic decor. New outdoor stage. I haven't experienced a show outside yet.

Barbara Peters was fantastic, she sang all her own songs and Joe Holt"s piano playing as usual is inovative and complimentary. The venue is so friendly and comfortable with excellent acoustics. A true home of musical magic.

First Time, enjoyed the performers. I gave it #5. Thanks for a nice night.
