WINE, LIVE MUSIC, PIZZA, WINGS, AND CHARCUTERIE IN THE WINE GARDEN
This Friday, the MegAcoustic Duo will perform at the AutoVino Wine Garden, offering familiar favorites, close harmonies, and lively acoustic mash-ups. Pair the music with local Woodside Vineyards wine, authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, wood-fired wings, Inge’s charcuterie, and good friends around the table, and you’ll have a Friday night worth gathering for.
LIVE MUSIC BY MEGACOUSTIC DUO
MegAcoustic Duo consists of members from The Megatones, a beloved Bay Area band known for their dance grooves, smooth vocals, strong harmonies, and exceptional musicianship. The Megatones were voted Best Cover Band in the Bay Area by KFOX 98.5 FM.
The duo draws inspiration from classic rock, modern country, R&amp;B, pop, and dance hits, then strips familiar songs down and reconstructs them acoustically. While you know much of the music, what you don’t know is where MegAcoustic Duo will take it.
A song that you've heard countless times can feel new again when two musicians perform it live with acoustic guitars, close harmonies, and a surprising mash-up.
This approach is particularly well-suited to the Wine Garden. The MegAcoustic Duo brings enough rhythm, personality, and musicianship to engage you whenever a song catches your attention. At the same time, the acoustic format allows for conversation around the table. The music energizes the evening without overwhelming the discussion.
PIZZA AND WOOD-FIRED WINGS FROM THE FLXIBLE DINER BUS
As the music flows through the Wine Garden, the aroma of wood-fired cooking invites you to linger.
Inside AutoVino's restored 1955 Flxible diner bus, Nate hand-stretches Neapolitan-style pizzas made with dough fermented for 48 hours. They emerge from the high-temperature oven with a lightly blistered crust and a tender, chewy center.
Nick, who trained at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, prepares chicken wings in a 900-degree wood-fired oven, making them crisp on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
INGE’S CHARCUTERIE BOARDS
Inge’s charcuterie boards are designed for sharing, featuring salami, prosciutto, a variety of cheeses, olives, nuts, crackers, and sweet accompaniments. This combination brings together salty, savory flavors with creamy, crunchy textures.
Pair one with a glass of local Woodside Vineyards wine, or choose from the non-alcoholic beverages available during Friday Happy Hour.
BRING THE DOG. STAY FOR THE EVENING.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome in the Wine Garden. Bring the dog. Bring some friends. That’s enough of a plan.
MegAcoustic Duo plays this Friday from 4:30 to 7:00 PM. Seating is limited. Come early to get a table.
