Grab a glass and enjoy live music by Alex Caton & Jordan Perry.

Alex made her home and spread her roots in Gordonsville, Virginia when she came to the University of Virginia to pursue a Doctorate in Anthropology. Her studies may have brought her to the Commonwealth, but it was the countryside and strong musical community that kept her here. Having lived, taught, and performed in other centers for traditional music, including Upstate New York and Asheville, NC, Alex felt that the heartbeat of old-time or Appalachian music (a direct descendent of Irish music which was an early passion of Alex’s) pulsed stronger in the foothills of Virginia than anywhere else. Within the first year of arriving in central Virginia, Alex was an integral member of the traditional music community and also an ambassador and liaison between the worlds of Irish and Old-Time music.

Jordan Perry is a respected fixture in the local music scene, known for his virtuosity on electric guitar and his soulful vocals. His credits include work with Charlottesville luminaries like Ned Oldham, New Boss, and the bluegrass ensemble Uncle Pen. Beyond performing, he serves as director of the Music Resource Center, nurturing the next generation of talent. His prolific solo catalogue showcases his versatility and deep musical roots.
