Wine & dine at an acoustic set from local artist Nesta Rae @ Wine Expo tonight

We’ve been enjoying The Wine Expo in Santa Monica and their tasting room for quite some time now. One of the best kept secrets on the Westside, The Wine Expo tasting room offers some great beers and wine during Happy Hour and all through the night.  Tonight is a great night to check out the Wine Expo if you haven’t already, as Nesta Rae is set to provide some beachy acoustic melodies to your experience.  Check her out tonight at The Wine Expo.  More info after the jump including a few recommendations!We have to admit that we don’t know very much about Nesta Rae, but we do know these two things: 1) She’s from Northern California, 2) She’s playing at The Wine Expo tonight.  That’s enough to get us interested!  The tasting room has a variety of options, including wine flights for every budget.  If we had to give a few suggestions for tonight, we would suggest the crostini plate and some of their awesome sangria.  Happy hour goes from 5- 7 PM, and Nesta Rae gets started at 7 PM.  If you live on the Westside, this is a fun and relaxing night just waiting for you.  Here is some more from The Wine Expo on Nesta Rae:

Born and raised in Northern California the album has a beachy, acoustic pop vibe, highlighted with a little reggae, and underscored with a few darker melodic ballads. “The ocean has always been an inspirational element in my life. I wanted this album to feel like a warm campfire after a day of surfing. You have a sense of calm as you just let the stories wash over you.” says Nesta.

You can check out some of her songs on her website now.  Hopefully this is just the start to some more musical performances at the Wine Expo in the future.
