This week we connected with Ashley Corts, usually holding court as the owner and operator of the Black Forge Coffee locations, but this time while she was trekking across the midwest in the Black Forge Coffee Van. As an owner of music venues and a huge supporter of the music and entertainment industry, Ashley felt compelled to literally hit the road and do whatever it is that she can to support struggling venues across the country.   

Strange and trying would be massively understated descriptors of the times we're living in right now. Many people all over the United States will have shared in a similar experience of having not attended any live concerts or live entertainment, certainly not in the traditional sense we used to 12 months ago. Pair that with the fact that the government on every level has largely turned its back on providing any meaningful relief to the floundering industry, leaving stages all over the country to scrape and claw their way through this ordeal while their main and often only source of income is deemed unsafe and prohibited.  

Thus... the Save Our Stages Tour was born- S.O.S.  

Enjoy!!!
