About Us

Our History

The Music Cafe, sponsored by Miami Regionals, was a longstanding Hamilton staple for local musicians and audience members alike. Keith Jones and Antoinette Webster started Music Cafe in 1999 and in December 2022 celebrated their final show after 23 years. 

In February 2023, local musicians, Steve Covington and Anne Bangert took the reins and are hosting under the new name The Music Collective. Steve and Anne play in the Folk/Americana bands Steve Covington & the Humble Strays and Stick & Bindle. The Music Collective will remain a free showcase for musicians of all levels to share music with fans and supporters in a dedicated listening atmosphere.

The Music Collective will continue to be held the last Tuesday of each month from 7-9pm at the Miami Regionals Downtown Hamilton Center, 221 High Street, 45011.  

We hope you’ll join us as we kick off a new era of bringing fans and musicians together!
