Live Music Friday with Matthew Payne at Wilson Valley Mercantile
Wilson Valley Mercantile is hosting Live Music Friday with Matthew Payne on Friday, May 15, 2026, from 6 to 9 PM in Little River-Academy, Texas.
The tasting room opens at 5 PM, giving you a little time to grab a craft cocktail, settle in, and prepare yourself emotionally for live music, Czech lager, and a fresh beef hamburger on a brioche bun. A very serious cultural experience, obviously.
Wilson Valley Mercantile will have craft cocktails, Czech lager, fresh beef hamburgers, and other good eats available during the evening. Matthew Payne takes the stage at 6 PM, making this a solid Friday night stop for anyone looking for live music, local drinks, and a relaxed Central Texas distillery hangout.
Wilson Valley Mercantile is located at 2421 Wilson Valley Loop, Little River-Academy, TX 76554.

Event details may change, so please confirm directly with Wilson Valley Mercantile before making plans.
And if you’re headed out for live music, cocktails, and a burger, maybe toss on some Texas Whiskey Geek merch while you’re at it. It helps support this independent, ad-free website, and it pairs surprisingly well with brioche. Probably. I have not submitted that to peer review.
Need a conversation starter for your fridge? Slap this bad boy on there, and watch as it holds up your grocery list, a photo of your dog wearing a cowboy hat, and a reminder to pick up more whiskey. This magnet’s got your back (and your fridge’s front). It’s also great for holding ransom notes demanding more whiskey or keeping a tight grip on your Texas BBQ recipes.
Versatile, strong, and as bold as a Texas sunset, this magnet is a must-have for any Texas whiskey lover. Stick it, love it, and let it do the heavy lifting (like reminding you it’s always five o’clock somewhere).
