"Backbeat, located at 1300 South Lamar Boulevard, is one of South Austin’s few proper cocktail bars. It will be closing with its last day of service on Sunday, June 10. The space will be turned into something new to be revealed in the fall. The cocktail team participated in the Official Drink of Austin in May, with bar manager Steph Teslar creating the Graffiti Park cocktail. Backbeat originally opened in March 2016 under Jessica and Michael Sanders, founders of Drink.Well. The partnership with the Sanders ended in the fall of 2017 after allegations against Michael Sanders." - Nadia Chaudhury
