The New World Tavern

09/29/2025

I wanted to wait until our crazy, chaotic , but best weekend was over at The New World Tavern.

Soaking up every last minute with the people that have truly become my family- we had ourselves a weekend for sure.

I remember the day I went to interview for this job. I told myself, I’ll just do this bartending thing on the side.. but there was only one problem- I had never bartended a day in my life. I had no idea about this industry whatsoever. I almost didn’t go in; but something told me there must be a reason they’re calling someone in who doesn’t even have experience.

Before you know it fast forward to today, I’m writing this as the final manager at the NWT. Although I was only here for a few years, being the last one to do the job will forever hold a special place in my heart. I’ve watched, I’ve learned things about this industry that I never thought I would, I hold so much gratitude to NWT for that.

But most of all, my people.
How lucky was I, to walk into a job that wasn’t always easy, but for some reason even on our days of most chaos, I felt at home. There’s also two definitions of home: it could be Chance checking in on how I’m feeling, or maybe something like Michael telling me I looked awful that day. Either way, I know it was out of love 😉

I am forever grateful for these people who I can truly call my family.

The end of one of the craziest, most unexpected, best errors. We will miss you.

With so much love,
NWT crew

LAST EVER New World Sunday 🎸 TODAY 3pm
Flydown is honored to be helping officially close out The New World Tavern. It has been an amazing run for a one of a kind venue in downtown Plymouth and we absolutely love Sunday Fundays at NWT and are beyond sad to see it go. We all truly built an exceptional and rare and real community family there over the past near decade of our Sunday run. And when I say we, I mean every last person in that room every week. WE all made something unique and special, lightning in a bottle.
First and foremost, the band would like to thank Karl for providing the South Shore with one of the greatest local live music venues around, bar none. Also, thank you Karl for your kindness to us and all bands and patrons and staff. You are loved by this community. Thank you for everything, and thank you Roman. The New World Tavern was simply one of the best places, it's as simple as that.
Thank you to Tim Downie, aka Mars Man for hiring both Flydown and Walrus Gumboot at The New World shortly after its opening and for giving us our first bookings. I'll never forget it and will always appreciate it. Thank you to Courtney who was managing when I intially proposed taking our little solo acoustic Sunday and try making it a full-blown concert with full band every Sunday afternoon. Thank you for believing in me and for willing to take a chance on it. You don't typically think of a Saturday night crowd when thinking of Sunday afternoons... everyone has to work on Monday, you compete with football games, etc. There are many reasons to believe a Sunday afternoon might not gain any traction. Boy, did New World Sundays gain traction.
Thank you to all the amazing Sunday staff that have been such a crucial factor in making Sundays what they have been. Patrons talk all the time about how important it is when you go to a venue and like the staff as much as the band. It has been a true team effort and an integral part of the magic of Sundays.
A special shout out to two people who have been a vital part of our band's residency for years- Michael and Chance. These two have been absolute fixtures and part of the very DNA of Sundays at New World Tavern for time out of mind. Thank you to some amazing managers, Courtney, Bridgitte, Jess and Carli, thanks to Nicole, Jocelyn, Brianna, and every last staff person we have had the pleasure of sharing every week with for so many years.
Again, thank you graciously and sincerely to all of our Sunday Funday New World friends. What a ride it's been xo
Thank you, New World Tavern, Flydown loves you and surely you will be missed.
Thanks for everything.
