Sonny’s House of Blues
Rowes Lane, Brisbane City
A new Brisbane alleyway has been reclaimed, as Sonny’s House of Blues takes over a basement tucked down Rowes Lane off Edward Street. Inspired by Los Angeles dive bars, the live-music venue, bar and eatery is strewn with gig posters, stickers, fairy lights and the odd dinosaur. Rock icons’ signed albums adorn the walls, a nod to the venue’s penchant for 1980s glam rock and authentic reggae beats. The latest venue from Jamie Webb, the man behind Lefty’s Old Time Music Hall, Gordita and Peasant, Sonny’s House of Blues serves up an extensive range of spirits behind the bar and tasty Mexican-inspired fare.
