Live Music Returns Thursday to Stateline’s Tessie’s Lounge
Solo performers start at 7:30 p.m., followed by bands later in the evening.

On Thursday, October 15, 2026, Tessie’s brings an evening of music to the Caesars Republic property in Stateline. The venue, called Cocktails & Chords, is a modern alpine lounge inspired by the Tahoe Tessie legend. Its programming centers on artists, recurring themed nights and special performances.
The first set runs from 7:30 to 9 p.m., featuring solo musicians and duos. Bands begin at 9:30 p.m. and continue through 12:30 a.m. The Thursday lineup also includes Sailing Club, a weekly yacht-rock party introduced during the summer. Another recurring series, Faded Karaoke, puts guests onstage with Tessie’s house band starting at 10 p.m.
Tessie’s opens every day at 11 AM. Before 9:30 p.m., guests are seated in the order they arrive. Live-music reservations are handled by phone at 775.586.5014 or email at VIP@tessiestahoe.com; those contacts also serve groups larger than 9 people. The lounge’s broader nightly program ranges from acoustic performances and yacht rock to energetic rock bands, with specialty events also planned around holidays, major sporting occasions and summer celebrations.

Evenings at the lodge now end on the sand: s'mores kits at the front desk, blankets by the door, and the lake going quiet at dusk.
