Live Music : Erik Gaines : Craft 31

Erik Gaines brings a smooth, modern R&B sound to Williamsburg that feels like it was designed for warm summer nights, patio cocktails, and anyone who appreciates music with actual soul. His vocals slide between velvet and swagger, pairing perfectly with the city’s mix of historic charm and “yes, we do have a nightlife, thank you very much.” Erik delivers a set that turns casual listeners into “I’m following this guy now” fans. His blend of R&B, neo‑soul, and late‑night groove fits Williamsburg’s vibe perfectly — classy enough for the wine crowd, cool enough for the beer crowd, and smooth enough for anyone who just wants to feel something.

About The Venue! Craft 31
Craft 31 keeps things simple: good food, strong drinks, and live music that actually feels intentional. Local artists set up close to the crowd, giving the place an intimate, almost house‑show vibe, and the mix of acoustic sets, soulful singers, and weekend crowd‑pleasers turns the restaurant into a legit hangout spot.
It’s one of the few Williamsburg venues where the music isn’t just background noise — it’s part of the experience, and people show up for it.
And the food absolutely holds its own. Craft 31 is known for its burgers, oysters, and wood‑fired pizzas, the kind of menu that makes you rethink whatever diet you thought you were on. The burgers are stacked, the seafood is fresh, and the shareables come out fast enough to keep the table happy between sets. It’s comfort food done right — the perfect pairing for a night of live music and a couple of cocktails.
