Live Music Saratoga Springs: Travers Day Celebration at Artisanal Brew Works

Looking for live music Saratoga Springs on Travers Day? Celebrate with us at Artisanal Brew Works on Saturday, August 29, with two live performances: Papa Rich and the Wayward Souls from 2–4 PM, followed by CB + Fireflies from 5–7 PM. Enjoy great food and drinks, outdoor dining on Nature’s Edge Terrace, and free, easy parking just minutes from downtown Saratoga Springs.

Papa Rich and the Wayward Souls — 2–4 PM

Papa Rich and the Wayward Souls bring an original blend of Americana, country, and rock rooted in the Saratoga Springs music scene. Led by Rich Clements, the group mixes original songs with carefully chosen covers for a laid-back, rootsy sound that’s a natural fit for an afternoon of live music. Their recent Volume One EP showcases the band’s original songwriting and distinctive style.

CB + Fireflies — 5–7 PM

CB + Fireflies bring an electrifying mix of rockabilly and jump blues designed to keep the good times rolling. Formed in early 2026, the quartet puts its own spin on hits from Elvis Presley, the Stray Cats, and Johnny Cash, along with rockabilly re-imaginings of familiar songs from the ’80s and ’90s. Expect an upbeat, high-energy performance made for shaking, rattling, and rolling.

Make Artisanal Brew Works part of your Travers Day plans with two bands performing throughout the afternoon and early evening. Come for Papa Rich and the Wayward Souls, stay for CB + Fireflies, and enjoy great food, cold drinks, outdoor dining, and live music on Nature’s Edge Terrace.

On cooler nights or during inclement weather, performances move inside our taproom, so the music always goes on.

Reservations are available for both indoor and outdoor seating. If you have a preferred spot, we recommend booking ahead—live music nights tend to fill up.

Pair your meal with one of our house-brewed beers, a handcrafted cocktail or mocktail, a glass of wine, or a rotating selection of gluten-free beer and cider options. Whether you’re stopping in for dinner or just drinks, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
