Daryl Shawn, live every Friday at Backstage Bar with no cover

Every Friday, solo guitarist Daryl Shawn plays at Backstage Bar in downtown Pittsburgh, right across the street from Heinz Hall, from 5 to 7:30 pm. There's no cover charge, the drinks are top-notch, and the music is very chill. Shawn plays a huge variety of instrumental music, taking a unique improvisational approach to everything from modern indie-pop tunes to classic jazz to classic rock, plus his own upbeat originals with a flamenco twist. He has released five albums of music and has performed all across North America.
