OUR Story
ROCKHOUSE LIVE IS YOUR PLACE TO EAT, DRINK AND ROCK. HERE’S OUR STORY.
From its humble beginnings in Dallas, TX, in 2006, to almost ten years of quiet incubation in Memphis, TN, RockHouse Live is now one of the fastest growing entertainment-themed restaurants and bars in the country.
Zach Bair, the original founder of RockHouse Live and a longtime music technology entrepreneur known for “instant live” recordings of such artists as Peter Frampton, Slash, Rob Thomas and more, teamed up with Jock Weaver, who served as president of Hard Rock Café International, and was responsible for growing that company from a small London business into a $200 million enterprise with global locations, to assist with the rollout of two initial locations under RockHouse Live Interational: the Flagship location located in beautiful Clearwater Beach, FL; and the the Key West location located on the iconic corner of Duval and Greene on the exotic and freewheeling island. Bair also independently owns and operates the two original Memphis locations, RockHouse Live Memphis, and RockHouse Live Midtown; as well as a recently opened location in Collierville, TN (a Memphis suburb), and Club 201 at the Detroit in Downtown St. Petersburg, FL.
RockHouse Live is focused on delivering nightly entertainment as well as a full menu of reasonably price food (including lunch, dinner and late-night service), of which many items are Bair’s own recipes, nurtured over a 10+ year period. To be clear, RockHouse Live is very much a restaurant, but with a “can’t-be-beat” entertainment theme. As a key differentiator, RockHouse Live leverages state-of-the-art livestreaming and content development capabilities from Bair’s sister company, music technology firm, VNUE, Inc. (OTC: VNUE), creating new revenue streams and exciting content for fans. Club 201 at the Detroit, which is a member of the RHL Family, offers an experience unlike any other - a unique “steampunk” restaurant and bar featuring live music every night, with ample outdoor seating, on the bustling corner of 2nd and Central in downtown St. Pete.
No matter when or where you visit RockHouse Live, you will experience fun times in an upbeat, musical environment, suitable for the whole family. RockHouse Live is your place to Eat, Drink and ROCK™!
