Breaking: Momo's Is Closing

As of Saturday evening, west 6th street venue Momo's was up and humming as usual with a show featuring Suzanna Choffel. It went off without a hitch, but Monday's show featuring Amy Annelle was cancelled due to what their Facebook page called "major renovations to the building." And then today, owner Paul Oveisi posted this: "It is with a heavy heart that I announce after 11 years Momo's on 6th is closing. While I cannot go into all the details, legally I can say the following “The building that is currently home to Momo’s is under construction and undergoing a large renovation. Under present circumstances, Momo’s will no longer be operating at this location. The building owner is working with Momo’s to secure a new home and hope to find one as soon as possible. We are already scouting for new locations and hope to have an announcement in early 2012."

In September, the venue celebrated ten years in business, and in October Oveisi announced that he is moving to Manhattan to manage Hill Country Live.
