Posted Apr 21, 2018
After more than 50 years in business, The Cave will close at the end of the month. Co-owner Mark Conner said the building's owner was interested in pursuing another type of business in the space. Since opening in 1968, The Cave has hosted up and coming bands and performers. Lyle Lovett played the venue in the 1980s. The Avett Brothers played the venue in 2002.
