Nectar Lounge, the unique indoor/outdoor music venue in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. With an impressive lineup of marquee shows, including a free 2-day shindig in August, Team Nectar has many reasons to celebrate with fans.
Prior to 2004, the old Baby Diaper Service was an unlikely place for crowds of people to dance and cheer. However, longtime friends Tate Rogers and Jed Smithson recognized its potential as the perfect spot to launch their new music venue. From its humble beginnings, serving pizza and hosting local music, to the international tour stop it is today Nectar has evolved into one of Seattle’s favorite independent concert venues.
Today, Nectar is co-owned with talent buyers Andy Palmer & Mario Abata as well as the original General Manager, Ken Stubblefield. In 2019, the Nectar team brought another long-time neighborhood music staple into the fold, High Dive, which will be celebrating its own 20 year anniversary in 2025.
With a focus on bringing eclectic and global music to the stage, Nectar’s one-of-a-kind layout features a wraparound mezzanine and stage-adjacent patio that creates a memorable experience for both patrons and performing artists. Recent upgrades to the venue's sound, lights and video, and the addition of pro lasers make it one of the most vibrant rooms in the city.
Nectar is proud to be a part of Seattle's long and storied music scene. Over the years, Nectar has hosted some legendary artists including Anderson .Paak, Aesop Rock, Greensky Bluegrass, Clozee, Robert Glasper, Janelle Monae, Nipsey Hussle, Victor Wooten, Wiz Khalifa, Snarky Puppy and Bon Iver, while also showcasing top Seattle talent like Polyrhythmics, Clinton Fearon, Macklemore, Critters Buggin, Allen Stone and Presidents of the United States of America. Nectar is also known for its diverse representation of musicians from around the world such as Dakhabrakha, Vieux Farka Toure, Huun Huur Tu, Black Uhuru, Gondwana and many others.
