On the Grid : Saturn
"After the closing of beloved Bottletree Café, Alabama native and drummer extraordinaire Brian Teasley (Man-or-Astroman?/Polyphonic Spree/St. Vincent) teamed up with Bowery Presents to fill the void by launching Saturn — the name, an ode to Birmingham free jazz legend Sun Ra. But he didn’t stop there. One half of Saturn houses Satellite — coffee shop by day, cocktail bar by night. A place to chill pre- and post-gig. Now one of the Southeast's premier live music venues, Saturn has played host to performers such as Kamasi Washington, Beach House, Low, Sun Ra Arkestra, and Dinosaur Jr. Outfitted with a state-of-the-art sound system and a full cocktail bar (with drinks named after board games, naturally), Saturn’s space IS the place." - Lewis Communications
