Rufus McBlack EP Release Show

at Johnny Mac’s on June 8, 2024

In Partnership with Dr. Music Records

Dr. Music Records has partnered with Johnny Mac’s, previously known as Fairhope Hemp, to bring you a special EP release show by the band Rufus McBlack on Saturday, June 8, 2024.

According to the Rufus McBlack band website, “Rufus McBlack hails from the Gulf Coast of Alabama. Their unique sound blends elements of heavy psych, experimental rock, garage, core, and doom chill.”

Wade Wellborn, owner of Dr. Music Records, says “This is their second show at the Fairhope venue, their October show was an amazing evening of dynamic music.” Wellborn adds that he feels “Super excited to be a part of Johnny Mac’s music venue; “this is an opportunity to bring edgy and challenging music to downtown Fairhope.”

Entertainment by No Complications will open the show; entry is $10 and the doors will open at 7 with music to start at 8.

The venue is located at 505 Fairhope Ave in downtown Fairhope between the library and post office.

The Ravenite Launches Drink Pink Menu to Benefit Team Member Diagnosed with Cancer

May 30, 2024

Employees and patrons alike are coming together at The Ravenite Pizzeria in support of a Ravenite team member who has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer.

According to Christian Miller, speaking on behalf of the Ravenite team, the “Drink Pink” menu idea came from server Liam Wise and was launched this week.

“It really just started last night. Tubby’s Tees donated the shirts, and everybody has been so cool and kind, really thoughtful,” said Miller.

A head-shaving event complete with pink Ravenite t-shirts (which are sold out for now, but more are on the way) helped kick off the endeavor on Wednesday, May 29, 2024.

The Ravenite hopes to generate a buzz (no pun intended) for proceeds which will go to help one of their own towards her battle.

Sending prayers from the Let’s Go Fairhope family…
