venue details

  • St. Andrew's Hall

    "Since 1980, historic St. Andrews Hall in downtown Detroit has brought trend-setting music to Detroit audiences. During the early 1980s, everyone from British New Wave groups like New Order to the then-college radio bands like R.E.M. played St. Andrews Hall. When alternative music was still truly alternative, St. Andrews Hall was the place to see these avant-garde bands: The Red Hot Chili Peppers played there as early as 1984; Jane's Addiction first played in 1988; in 1989, long before grunge, Soundgarden played there. At the forefront of musical trends, these breakthrough artists have graced the stage of St. Andrews Hall: Smashing Pumpkins in 1989; Nine Inch Nails in 1990, Nirvana and Pearl Jam in 1991, Alice in Chains in 1992, Green Day in 1994, Oasis in 1995. The ballroom which holds 1,000 people, is a favorite venue among musicians as well as concert-goers because of its acoustics and perfect sight lines."

Bizarre and Prozak Live

Fresh off the release of his third album, Friday Night at St. Andrews, Bizarre draws from his experiences as a member of D-12 and his early days at St. Andrews Hall for this latest album.  He is trying to get away from his image as a comical rapper and is working hard to get people to view his skills rather than his humor. When asked about the new album, Bizarre says, “I’m bringing it back to the raw hip hop with this album.  I came up form battling, but people got me misconstrued because of some of my lyrics and didn’t consider me a dope MC.  I wouldn’t say that I’m toning my music down, but I’m definitely being more lyrical this time around.” Joining Bizarre is Saginaw’s own Prozak.  Known as the Hitchcock of hip hop he showcases his unique sound on his latest release Paranormal.  He uses influences from Edgar Allen Poe to Slipknot to ICP to Cypress Hill.  His songs cover a wide range of topics including racism, love, capitalism, hate and everything in between.  Besides his hard-hitting hip hop, Prozak is also a budding filmmaker. Bizarre and Prozak with special guests play live at St. Andrew’s Hall this Friday, July 20th.  All ages are welcome and tickets are $15 on sale now.  Tickets already purchased for the Emerald Theatre show will be honored at the door.  Tickets will also be available at the door on Friday night.
