Skull Alley

RIP Skull Alley

Skull Alley is/was located in Louisville's Paristown Poine neighborhood - just off the corner of Broadway and Barrett Ave. The address is/was 1017 E. Broadway in a building renovated just for the venue and associated screen printing operation. Opened in 2008 by Jamie Prott and Allyson Lowery, the venue sought to fill a place in Louisville musical landscape as well as serve as a memorial to Dylan Prott.

After two and a half years, an almost uncountable number of shows, and achieving many goals, Skull Alley closed up shop on December 31st, 2010.
