Blind Pig Cafe, Underground music venue in Ann Arbor, US.
The Blind Pig spans two levels, with the main concert space upstairs and the 8-Ball Saloon downstairs, offering different musical experiences throughout the week.
Established in 1971 by Tom Isaia and Jerry Delgiudice, the venue started as a European-style cafe before evolving into a central spot for blues performances.
The venue has hosted performances by Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden before their rise to prominence, cementing its place in alternative music history.
The venue maintains a capacity of 400 people, operates multiple bars, and requires age verification for entry depending on specific event requirements.
Blind Pig Records, launched in 1975, emerged from the venue to document and distribute recordings of musicians who performed on its stage.
