Amateur Night At The Apollo at Apollo Theater

Amateur Night At The Apollo

Amateur Night At The Apollo has been a key feature in the local New York scene since 1934 when it launched, and has been the stepping stone in the career of many world-class musicians and entertainers, including Lauryn Hill and Stevie Wonder. The audience has the responsibility of cheering loudly for those they like and booing those they deem less adept off the stage.

Dawes at Beacon Theater

Dawes

Through a tapestry of warm vocals and sun-soaked guitar hooks, Dawes have made a name for themselves for replicating the feel of the Lauren Canyon sound of the 70's. But far from being a copy, the quartet are something retro inspired, but with a chilled vibe straight out of the present. Enjoy some authentically vintage beats by Dawes in 2024!

Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds at Barclays Center

Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds

With style that would make the devil jealous, the compelling Nick Cave is one of indie rock's most unique front-men. As the leader of The Bad Seeds, he cuts the figure of a doomed romantic anti-hero, delivering layered narratives with a maniacal fever, yet always enthralling. In a career that has spanned over two decades and myriad studio albums, they continue to perform with the intensity of band half their age, ever-evolving and never disappointing.
