Diving in deeper

With proximity to venues such as White Oak Music Hall and 713 Music Hall, Cusack hopes to provide pre-show cocktail and bites, as well as a late-night spot to keep the party going, per the release.

In addition, Cusack said in a statement he wants Soluna to be an active community space and neighborhood bar. As such, the venue will host weekly events including art markets, live music performances, karaoke and trivia nights, per the release.

From the owner

Cusack said in the release the concept's opening will be a dream come true. Its design, and food and cocktail program are a reflection of his travels throughout California and Texas.
