Republic New Orleans

New Orleans


Republic showcases some pretty awesome live acts, but on any given night the crowd could range from a bunch of music-obsessed fanatics to some aggro meatheads coming in from the 'burbs. With that said, the curation of acts has gotten better and better over the years and the sight lines to the small stage are awesome.
