Join us as we celebrate 12th Night at the U. Club on January 6 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. with a wine tasting presented by Capital Wine. Greg will offer a selection of wines from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, and Germany, as well as spirits from England and Ireland.

Stay for live music in the Grille Room from 8:00 – 10:00 p.m. with MotherJudge. MotherJudge blends influences of jazz, blues, country, bluegrass and folk to bring a unique Americana music experience alive in every show. Sublime vocals, the best musicians, and a deep songbook of originals and covers bring it all home.

THIS JUST IN: Mother Judge will be performing with her husband, the magnificent guitarist Sten Isachsen, and percussionist extraordinaire Mote Matson!

On the first Friday of each month, the University Club celebrates the arts and culture in Albany by serving as a 1st Friday venue. One need not be a member to enjoy live music, dinner and dancing in the Grille Room, dress is casual, and cash and major credit cards are accepted. The performance and tasting are free and dinner will be served until 9:00 p.m., please call 518-463-1151 for reservations!
