We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the work of performing artists in the Southeast and beyond.
Barking Legs is an intimate concert hall that has established a reputation as a great place for musicians and listeners alike. We are known throughout the Southeast as a venue with great acoustics and remarkable intimacy.
Barking Legs is dedicated to elevating the work and voices of performers representing marginalized communities. For 30 years, our programming has explored the social justice issues happening in our own backyard and provided a space for deep reflection and honest conversation.

An emotionally powerful and intimate musical about two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love over the course of five years, the show's unconventional structure consists of Cathy, the woman, telling her story backwards while Jamie, the man, tells his story chronologically; the two characters only meet once, at their wedding in the middle of the show.

Tickets are $10 at the door.
An environment for local professionals to reimagine their material. An opportunity for the diversity of players here to mix and match talents for an entirely new sonic outcome. Not an open jam but broad participation is encouraged. The scene is weighted towards acoustic strings, horns, and percussion, but the occasional electric instrument will be fun.
$5 cover, tips for musicians encouraged and appreciated!
