 At the time - live music in bars being a new experience in the city - the cafe was overcrowded over weekends and many customers had to be turned away.One of the intrinsic characteristics of the piano bars is that the artists remix a range of classic hits, instead of sticking to performing only their own songs.For example, Dawit Shilan playing Atewebrhan Segid’s 1970s jazz not only brought these classic song back to life, but showed his mastery of performance skills, particularly on the "krar."
