Eau Claire as well as some of the city's finer (ahem\, cheaper) taverns\, making it a prime location for a group of coeds to live. It also abuts Owen Park\, a fine place for a young man to play guitar and perhaps catch the attention of the previously mentioned coeds. Lo and behold\, proximity worked his magic\, and on First Avenue\, guitarist Tim Krogman met vocalist Renee Thompson. Their story only began on First Avenue\, and they went on to live on many other streets before settling in Stevens Point\, raising a family\, and playing with different bands over the years.\n\nActive in the Stevens Point music scene\, Tim spun records for 90fm's 'Acoustic Revival' before recruiting some friends\, including Renee\, to play with Grandad & Friends. While the lineup has changed\, Tim and Renee found a partnership in both music and marriage that was made to last. They added elements and put on a good show throughout the state\, but around 2011\, the grind had gotten to be too much. But they knew the basics were good. The beating heart of their love for music and performing included one another. So along with their back to basics sound\, they decided to name the band after the place it all began\, First Avenue.\n\nLike two young kids falling in love\, the world seems simple and big and and perfect and scary and vulnerable and joyous at the same time. That feeling isn't summed up in complicated arrangements or synth fills or a horn section. This music doesn't need a semi truck loaded with electronics. Everything they need fits in a Dodge Caravan. Performing both covers and originals from left\, right\, and center of the dial\, it's a sound and style that has delighted audiences all over Wisconsin.\n\nSo when you listen to this duo\, you'll be sure to get a back to basics sound that exudes love\, passion and camaraderie. It's a feeling that gets passed on to audiences at every venue they play.\n\nMusicians play on the patio\, weather permitting\, so dress accordingly!\n\nWhether you've been to Vino Cappuccino before or are interested in trying something new\, Vino Cappuccino is a delightful little place that we are sure you will enjoy!\n\nThe Bistro serves wood-fired pizza\, paninis\, soup\, and salad. We also have meat and cheese trays if you are just looking for a snack. Galen has a huge selection of beer and seltzer drinks on hand also!\n\nThe Farmhouse offers a variety of coffee\, tea\, smoothies\, and of course\, WINE! However\, Dina's homemade desserts seem to be everyone's favorites.\n\nBoth our Bistro and Farmhouse offer gluten free\, dairy free\, and vegan options.\n\nVino Cappuccino has a large yard for nearly unlimited outdoor seating. We have a new addition this year to our yard...an originally designed\, one-of-a-kind double decker! What is a double decker? Come find out!\n\nVino Cappuccino is the ideal place to gather with old friends\, meet new friends\, and relax in a calm\, rural environment. We have many pets on the property:\n\nElvis the dog.\n\nTwo cats - Trixie and Cher\n\nDolly the sheep\n\nFour goats - John\, Paul\, George\, and Ringo.
