Broken Compass Presents

01/16/2026

This is, in my opinion, a natural evolution of the Broken Compass experiment from the last few years… we’re not done, but Off The Record is going to be our new HQ… 🤘

🚨NEW SHOW ALERT🚨 THE RETURN OF BODEGA CAT
w/ special guest DJ COCO
FRIDAY OCTOBER 31ST, 2025
SOUTHBOUND SMOKEHOUSE
N. AUGUSTA, SC
9PM

It’s been nearly two years since the mighty Bodega Cat last took the stage, but the jammiest jam band that no one asked for is back for one night only — HALLOWEEN NIGHT at Southbound Smokehouse in N. Augusta, SC!

The group has been voted Augusta Magazine’s Best of Augusta - Alternative/Rock Band for four years running (2022-2025) and features a veteran lineup of Augusta musicians that have worked extensively as solo acts and in notable bands, such as Funk You, Cameras Guns & Radio, and Pedestrian - Will McCranie on guitar & vocals, Rob Thompson on bass & vocals, Tom Reed on keys, guitar & vocals, Mark Janousek on drums, & Brad Morganstern on percussion. While a certain pandemic slowed down some live and touring options, Bodega Cat quickly drew attention for their risk taking live performances and a clever blend of covers & original tunes and has been featured on just about every major stage in the CSRA, on national livestreams like 500 Songs For Kids and sharing bills with acts like G. Love & Special Sauce, Big Something, Funk You and Goin’ South.

Special Guest: DJ COCO RUBIO will be spinning before, setbreak, and after… keeping the party going all night long!

Riff Raff Kings, 12.21.2001 at the Soul Bar in Downtown Augusta, GA was a tipping point for me. I was 17 (huge thank you to Coco and my mother for making it possible for me to attend) and, in that moment, knew that I had to be a part of live music.
