  The ability to see exquisite live music should not be hindered by age. Fortunately for us, El Corazon provides an excellent venue for the under-21 set, bringing out a rockin' combination of both local and touring acts. It still mostly caters to an all-ages crowd despite the fact that it has a bar—perfect for those on the cusp of reaching drinking age who have older friends who want to kick back a few while they watch the show. By providing stage space for all kinds of music from the pop-rock of Phantom Planet to the metal rage of At the Gates, El Corazon will inevitably have at least one show that you'll enjoy.—Jaime Swindle

  although the el corazon (formerly graceland) is a runs on the small/tight side, there's always something comforting about it, i've heard and will agree with many people that it "feels like home."You get a great intimate close up with the stage.
