Lost Weekend Records celebrated its 23rd year in business at Natalie’s in Grandview. The store has always been central to the local Columbus music scene.

Owner Kyle Seigrist aims to not only celebrate the longevity of the store, but the local music scene as well. This year was no exception. The party started with Ian Hummell and Zach Whitney opening up the free happy hour with their fun take on country music classics. The second act of the happy hour was a solo acoustic set by Kyle Sowash and was songs that “he just made up”. Both of these sets were perfect for the dinner/happy hour and got the night off to a great start.

The main stage opened up at 8:00 PM and Kyle’s own band Second State Butchers kicked off the night with a great set. Both of the stages at Natalie’s were running throughout the night with mostly acoustic sets on Charlie’s stage. The Music Hall Stage featured electric rock bands with visuals by Doug Leed. Below is the line up for the evening.

Charlie’s Stage continued through the evening with mostly acoustic sets by Myron Hart, John Hurlbut and Scott Brown and finished with the fun midwest skiffle of Back Doorthy.

The Music Hall Stage continued with a solid local line up of Eternally Psyched, Salthorse, Brian Damage, Aaron Troyer’s Floating World and closed with a reunion show of  The Church of the Red Museum.

I was able to check out most of these sets and snap a few pictures. Happy Anniversary to Lost Weekend Records and thanks for bringing us another great showcase of the Columbus local music scene.
