Audiences will delight in The Hokum Brothers whose repertoire includes ballads, showtunes, & rockabilly, and play on real-life experiences spun through the timeless lens of old-school showbiz. Their original songs are catchy and integrated with humor and speak of true-life experiences with a thread of the earliest cultural fabric we call Vaudeville & Americana.

The Double E Lounge is located in the same building at The Essex Cinemas. The 150 capacity theater has a full bar, multimedia screen, and a state of the art sound and lighting system to create a one of a kind immersive entertainment experience.
