Episodes of "Live At 9:30" began airing on public television stations earlier this month.

After each episode has aired on public television, it will be available in full at LiveAt930.com.

The first three episodes of the 12-episode premiere season will feature performances by Garbage, The Arcs, Tove Lo, Ibeyi, El Vy, MisterWives, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Frank Turner, MS MR, Cold War Kids, Youth Lagoon, Jess Glynne, Yonder Mountain String Band, Mariachi Flor de Toloache and Waxahatchee. Wayne White, of "Pee-wee's Playhouse" fame, has provided an animated puppet short for the series. Episodes will feature an unexpected mix of contributors and hosts, including Henry Rollins, NPR Music's Bob Boilen, HANNIBAL Buress, Jill Kargman, Ralphie May, and many more surprise guests.

Through LiveAt930.com, music fans around the world will have access to the performances, interviews, and short films that make up each episode. With creative agency Preacher, Squarespace built the LiveAt930.com website to host the incredible content featured in each episode of the TV series. For Squarespace, involvement in the TV series and the accompanying website was a natural fit. "We have always supported and will continue to support the creative community, so it made perfect sense for Squarespace to host this innovative new program," says Squarespace Chief Creative Officer David Lee. "The 9:30 Club is a landmark institution where countless legendary artists have launched their careers, and we are excited to be part of that rich history."

Ahead of its air date, "Live At 9:30" has already drawn nationwide interest (Washington Post, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Billboard, USA Today, AV Club) for what promises to be a new series unlike any other - an unpredictable, modern-day music variety series filmed at Washington, D.C.'s legendary 9:30 Club. Each cinematic, one-hour episode of "Live At 9:30" will feature a collection of acts from different genres, interspersed with insightful and entertaining interviews, short films, and comedic bits. In a word: variety - variety about which people are already talking.

The Lagunitas Brewing Co., was founded in Petaluma, CA in 1993. The core of Lagunitas came from Chicago, St Louis, Memphis, Walker Creek, and the highlands of Quincy. The Chicago contingent initiated the brewing, driven unseen by an urge to communicate with people, to find our diasporic tribe, and to connect with other souls adrift on a culture that had lost its center and spun its inhabitants to the four winds to wander lost and bereft with a longing to re- enter the light.
