Linear 26 - An All-Vinyl Three-Hour Set by Tommy Allen
On Friday, October 16, from 7–10 PM, join Tommy Allen as he returns for a musical set curated to bring people together through rhythm, memory, and the warmth of analog. Tommy’s live soundscape includes selections that seek to transform dinner into a shared experience of food, culture, and always a healthy dose of belonging.
Thanks to Vertigo Music, Backwards Compatible, The Corner Record Shop, and the many independent record stores across our city helping fuel a quiet revolution—one in which people are stepping away from the digital tether of "rented" music and moving toward a more analog life, shared with others over an artfully curated set, a handcrafted meal, and, of course, dessert on our minds.
We hope you can join us for this special evening at Linear Restaurant on the Grand River.
What’s the what? (Behind the scenes)
More than a mixtape and short of the dance floor, these evenings are devoted to showcasing diverse genres of music that flows like conversation, weaving joy, belonging, and the spirit of community.
✨ Reserve your table or bar seat early—these nights of community-building through music often sell out.
Programming begins at 7 PM, but no worries if you can’t make it right on time—Tommy releases his playlist after each appearance so you can carry the experience with you long after the house lights come up.
This night also marks Tommy’s 26th set at Linear.
Since this debut, Tommy’s appearances have become an ongoing tradition of gathering, listening, and celebrating the rhythms that unite us. We’ve even seen a lot of table hopping, which is always a good sign, according to Tommy.
