“Music allows me to get away,” says Darius “Doc D” Baker, program director at Hallelujah 95.3 FM and the creator behind Tallahassee Nights Live. “It takes you to another place. If you allow yourself to, you can get lost in any song. I’m going on a vacation every time I listen.” 

Baker launched Tallahassee Nights Live 18 years ago at the Ramada Inn. The monthly, live music showcase has since grown and relocated to The Moon. Baker co-produces the shows with a team to provide the community with exciting, new music from local talent, while also giving musicians practical industry knowledge and experience. 

Baker is looking forward to the next showcase, “The Lover’s Lounge,” on Feb. 12. Themed for Valentine’s Day, the music will take listeners on a journey through trials, tribulations, and triumphs of a relationship. Like other showcases, a variety of singers will perform throughout the night alongside a 13-piece band.
