North Bettendorf
North Bettendorf's live-music options span a craft-brewery taproom, a neighborhood pub, and one of the Quad Cities' most active outdoor stages. Crawford Brew Works is a micro-brewery and taproom on Devils Glen Road that regularly pairs its house-brewed beers with live music. Performers like Mo Carter and Ryan Bizarri have played evening sets there, and the brewery has used music as the centerpiece of fundraising events, featuring local acts such as Charlotte Boyer alongside guest bartending nights. Harrington's Pub anchors its music calendar on Thursdays, billing itself as the home of Bettendorf's best acoustic music acts, with karaoke rounding out the week on other nights. The Tangled Wood is the area's biggest live-music draw. Its 8,000 square-foot backyard holds an outdoor bar, dining area, fire pits, and an amphitheater that has become a focal point of the Quad Cities music scene. The venue hosts over 50 bands each summer, drawing acts from across the Midwest, with live music nearly every Friday and Saturday night. The booking mix includes local favorites like Funktastic 5 and 10 of Soul alongside tribute acts covering U2, Latin, classic rock, and country.
