The Rhythm Room is a must-visit venue for any music lover. This place is a favorite among musicians due to the acoustics and ambiance that make for a magical evening. It's a low-key spot that feels more like a jam session than a canned performance. The focus is on the music, and everything else is secondary. This insider's secret is one of Phoenix's best-loved and lowest-profile clubs. The club layout ensures no one is more than 30 or 40 feet from the stage so you can be up close and personal with the performers. The Rhythm Room has hosted some of the best blues singers to travel the southwest, including Rosie Ledet & the Zydeco Playboys, Jimmie Vaughan, Sophie B. Hawkins, and Nils Lofgren. Regulars rave about clean bathrooms and strong drinks. No wonder this granddaddy of the live music scene in Phoenix has stood the test of time.
