The Way Out Club

Come On In!

About Me

The Way Out Club is located at the corner of South Jefferson and Gravois in beautiful south St. Louis and is a "home away from home" for many local musicians and artists. The Way Out Club first opened its doors at the original location on Cherokee on September 29, 1994, and continues to host an eclectic blend of quality live music including punk, rockabilly, garage, surf, folk and alternative, just to name a few. Owners Bob and Sherri put a lot of heart and soul into their place and their focus on local music has given many bands their start in the local club scene. Write to us at 2525 S. Jefferson, St. Louis, MO 63104. Or call us sometime at 314 664 7638.

Voted best rock 'n' roll bar by the Riverfront Times, the Way Out is a definite St. Louis institution, and a rock 'n' roll museum to boot. So if you're 21 or older, drop on in and remember, at the Way Out Club, you're never a stranger!

Sunday morning
