Marvelous Music in New York

New York is one of the world’s top cities for music. The town is bursting with clubs, concert spaces and a whole host of other venues for the most avent garde, contemporary or unusual music. Here is a list of just a few spots and what’s happening there today:

Chris Lemmon

1.    The Metropolitan Room is in the Flatiron area of Manhattan, on West 22nd Street. They are famous for a cabaret, pop atmosphere and hold amateur contests which are a great opportunity to discover the latest talent in the city. On Sunday, September 25th come on over and enjly the cool sounds of Chris Lemmon, son of Jack. He plays piano and will share stories of growing up with the funny, talented actor.

2.    Le Poisson Rouge is on Bleeker Street, which if you stop by you will notice is on the same spot where the iconic Village Gate used to be. Not only is this a venue for some of the most eclectic sounds around today, like John Cage, Deerhunter of ‘Crooked Disco,’ you will be challenged. Order some Cajun food or watch sports on the giant LCD screen for a bit of less cultured fun.

3.    The Black Eyed Peas will be in Central Park on September 30. Need we say more?
