The evening kicks off with a communal singalong session before Ty Dietz steps up to deliver a set of original music — the kind of coastal night that starts loose and ends with everyone knowing the words. Shorty's Place has that easy, salt-aired energy that pairs perfectly with a cold drink and a crowd that came ready to enjoy themselves.
It's a short walk back to Beached Inn when the last note fades, sandy feet and all — the porch, the Gulf breeze, and a quieter kind of perfect waiting right around the corner.
