Black Shoe Hospitality

See you all tomorrow night! 🎵😎🕺

Black Shoe Hospitality—one of Tosa Tonight’s longest Presenting Sponsors and purveyors of fine food—along with our Signature Sponsors are bringing Wauwatosa an evening of the finest local (and global) bluegrass jams this side of the equator. Come to think of it… 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 Shoe is bringing the 𝐛𝐥𝐮𝐞grass. Call this our “Black and Blue” night!

Who remembers Valley Fox at Tosa Tonight in 2023? Anyone? You’d be forgiven if you cannot remember. Valley Fox was added to the lineup with W***y Porter as our rainout makeup date. The show was August 23 and Wauwatosa's high temperature reached 101℉. At 6 o’clock, when Valley Fox took the stage, it was every degree of 101. Sweltering.

We always wanted to bring them back for all to hear and in front of CHICKEN WIRE EMPIRE on July 22nd, what a perfect chance to make this happen.

Speaking of bands that got the short-end due to Wauwatosa Summer weather, Chicken Wire Empire was also one of those bands we had on the schedule in 2025 that got canceled due to torrential rains.

Chicken Wire Empire blazes their own path in bluegrass music. Rooted in the Wisconsin scene, the band brings a passionate energy to the most beloved elements of bluegrass. Led by a lifetime of dedicated musicianship, CWE’s edge-of-your-seat liveliness is a nod to bluegrass history and the soul of their original sound.

This night of Black and Blue is going to be one to remember!

This is what Milwaukee does.
Supper clubs. Friday nights. Baseball.

Big thanks to ESPN Milwaukee for highlighting the launch of Supper Club Fridays at American Family Field—and catching Chef Joe doing his thing.

Big news for Milwaukee.

Last night we were at the Michelin announcement, and it’s official—Milwaukee is part of the new Great Lakes region.

The inspectors are already here. Quietly dining. Taking notes. Looking for what makes this place special.

We’ve always believed in this city. The restaurants. The people. The way a great meal can be anything—from a quick lunch to a full-on celebration.

That’s what we’ll keep doing.
High-quality food. Real hospitality. A place for any occasion and every budget.

Congrats to all the restaurants across Milwaukee and the Great Lakes region. This is a big moment.

2027 can’t come soon enough.
