South Coast Hangout

Come out for some great live music and dancing on a Sunday afternoon! Legendary Rhode Island cover band The Senders is playing at the Narragansett Cafe (the Ganny). The band has been together for more than 40 years and is so much fun. Think ZZ Top, Billy Idol, The Cars, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd…Check out their full song list . No cover charge, although the band appreciates tips. Park on the street or small lot across the street from the venue.

Come dance the night away again at the Narragansett Cafe (the Ganny) to one of the best local dance cover bands we have: Amber Rose and the Renegades.
