Explore Chennai’s unique music experiences at this cafe that hosts intimate concerts
The HinduMaarten Visser, a legend in the Chennai jazz scene, believes that the city has always loved its music. When he played a concert full of pixie jazz, to a packed audience at Vinyl and Brew, a cafe in Alwarpet with his frequent collaborator Holger Jetter on March 8, one could hear the occasional clank of cutlery. Ragu, who runs the coffee shop, says that while coffee is the mainstay here, the establishment has been taking a music-forward approach because he likes listening to good music. Vinyl and Brew’s audience is different from the one that attends the coffee shop raves. Vivek Ayer, one of the four founders of Alternation that hosted Maarten’s gig on Saturday says that he has also noticed that people at this venue are willing to pay to listen to good music.
