Co-owner David Matthews said his reasoning for reviving the beloved venue was earnest and straightforward. He woke up one morning and realized it was the only thing he\u2019d wanted. <\/p>\n

Since nobody else had filled the void the Music Box left, it was up to him to do so.<\/p>\n

\u201cI needed a place like this when I was younger and in a band and wanting somewhere to listen to rock \u2019n\u2019 roll and be wild.\u201d<\/p>\n

Music Box History<\/h2>\n

The first iteration of the Music Box made its debut in 2008 and was located on 455 Dauphin St, where it would stay for five years until closing due to noise complaints in 2013.<\/p>\n

After a 6 year hiatus, the Music Box rose again in 2019 on 12 S. Conception St. This iteration, with its iconic entrance (double doors painted into a mouth and two windows for eyes) hosted artists and music lovers alike on the gulf coast until closing in 2024.<\/p>\n

The venue has hosted a variety of different shows and genres including: rock, punk, metal, electronic dance music, comedy shows, hip-hop and much more.<\/p>\n
