VELVET NIGHTS: Featuring Uncle Morty’s Rhythm Cream

For the first time ever, Uncle Morty’s Rhythm Cream steps into an intimate, ticketed Opera House setting—transforming a beloved local band into a one-night, close-up, fully interactive experience.

Known throughout the Gainesville area for their big-band, high-energy Soul, R&B, and Rock covers, Uncle Morty’s Rhythm Cream typically plays free, open venues—restaurants, breweries, and bars where the music sets the mood but rarely takes center stage.

This night is different.

At Velvet Nights: Sing & Sway, the room becomes part of the band.
Guests aren’t just listening—they’re requesting songs, singing along, dancing, and connecting with the musicians and each other in a way that simply isn’t possible in a casual bar setting.

Inside the historic High Springs Opera House, seating is limited, lights are low, champagne is flowing, and the focus is on shared moments:

• Soulful grooves you can feel
• Familiar songs reimagined up close
• A crowd that leans in, not shouts over the music
• A band responding to the room, not just a setlist

To complete the experience, guests can reserve champagne tables and enjoy house-made desserts, speciality craft cocktails and a selection of snacks, turning the evening into a full sensory night of music, movement, and indulgence.

If you’ve ever loved this band at a brewery, bar, or restaurant, this is your chance to experience them closer, richer, and more connected—in a space designed for listening, swaying, celebrating, and being part of the music.
