Lafayette's Music Room

Once again, Historic Lafayette’s Music Room is the spot to enjoy the best live music in town, and some great food! The original Lafayette’s Music Room was short-lived but still vividly remembered. During the 1970s, it was a small but influential venue rooted in the most happening corridor of Memphis. A key stop on the showcase circuit for up-and-coming touring artists, Lafayette’s played a significant role in launching the careers of such music superstars as Billy Joel, KISS, Big Star, Barry Manilow, J.J. Cale and Leon Russell, to name a few. Today’s Lafayette’s Music Room evokes that storied past. It hosts the best live acts playing rock ‘n roll to jazz to blues and everything in between. Lafayette’s Music Room once again is a staple for all great music fans, and a place where new legends are being made.

The Results

Metacake partnered with Lafayette’s Music Room in Memphis to launch a revitalized brand and website, breathing new life into the iconic venue. We kicked off with brand development, working with the LaFayette’s Team to craf an identity that honored its 1970s legacy—where legends like Billy Joel performed—while appealing to today’s crowd with Southern-inspired cuisine and live music seven nights a week. Our team designed a bold, retro-modern aesthetic that captured Lafayette’s vibe: great food, good vibes, and Memphis soul. For the website, we built a sleek, user-friendly platform showcasing their menu, music calendar, and booking options, all optimized for mobile and desktop. We streamlined navigation to highlight nightly performances and dishes like shrimp and grits, driving engagement and reservations. Post-launch, we refined the site with analytics to boost engagement and reservations. Lafayette’s team celebrated our work, noting the brand and site perfectly revived their Overton Square legacy for a new generation.

“The team is professional, has countless experts, they are well organized and kind. Metacake found a way to make this process straightforward and as simple as possible.”
