What’s groovin’ in April?
We hope everyone is as jazzed as we are about the beginning of spring, and we’re pleased to report that there are so many great shows in April to help you celebrate the end of winter.
What’s groovin’ in March?
In honor of Women’s History Month, we want to shout out all the badass women playing in NYC this month. First, we’ve got the French band, Yelle, lead by singer, Julie Budet, bringing their electro-pop vibes to Elsewhere. Later this month, we’ve got the incredible rock goddess, Abby Jeanne, opening for Ghost Funk Orchestra at Mercury Lounge. ICYMI, we got the chance to catch up with her last summer. Check out our interview here.
What’s groovin’ in February?
We hope everyone had a great start to 2023. February’s a short month, but we’ve got a ton of awesome artists coming to keep you groovin’ all four weeks. First, we’ve got the NYC-bred six-some, Tilden, coming to The Broadway. We caught up with them before their debut headline show at TV Eye last summer and we’re so excited they’re back and rocking in NY again. Check out our interview with them here.
What’s groovin’ in January?
Welcome to 2023 fam! We are so excited for another year of live music and groovy times. It might be freezing, but we’ve got plenty of great shows to keep you dancing & warm this month.
Forest Hills Stadium
An awesome outside venue in the heart of Queens where you want to see a big show in the summer or early fall. There’s both GA standing and stadium seating, so you can choose your own adventure. You can find lots of food and drink options inside the stadium, and the staff is super helpful and friendly.
The Sultan Room
The Sultan Room has quickly become one of our favorite venues. It’s a great spot for a smaller show inside or a sunset show on the roof. The wall behind the stage downstairs features an epic light display that we didn’t know we needed, but we do. The roof has a chiller vibe and smaller stage with room to sit or dance. If you’re hungry, there’s an awesome sit down restaurant, The Turk’s Inn, that’s decorated like the inside of your quirky great-aunt’s house. For a faster bite, the Döner Kebab takeout window never disappoints.
Knockdown Center
Knockdown is an awesome space that hosts a range of awesome artists and events. There’s the indoor space where you’ll be most winter, “The Ruins” space outdoors where you’ll be groovin’ during the summer and fall, and “The Basement” club where you’ll be year-round in the wee hours of the morning.
Radio City Music Hall
One of the most quintessential venues in NYC, right in the heart of midtown. Catch the legendary marquee sign on your way into the Art Deco-inspired theater, which is beautiful on the inside and has great sound.
Kings Theatre
The historic Kings Theatre features a brightly-lit marquee sign and immensely high walls and ceilings, every inch of which are decorated with intricate gold moldings and ornate hand-painted artwork. Although it’s a seated venue, it’s got a solid soundsystem, and you’ll find most people up and dancing at shows here, especially in the pit.
