The Grape International is a long-standing music venue located in Ventura, California. Originally established in 1970 by John Lomax as a folk music club, it quickly became a haven for singer-songwriters and acoustic musicians. Over the decades, The Grape has hosted numerous nationally and internationally recognized artists across various genres including blues, jazz, country, and rock. It’s known for its intimate setting – a relatively small capacity allowing for close interaction between performers and audience members – and its commitment to live music. The venue relocated within Ventura County in 2018 after facing potential closure at its original location but continues to operate as a dedicated live music space. It maintains a reputation for supporting both established acts and emerging talent.
