Here are our picks for just a few of the incredible NYC venues near StuyTown:
- The Bitter End is the city's oldest rock venue, an intimate room with exposed brick walls. Its stage has seen decades of talent, including Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Lady Gaga, and thousands of others. Small wooden tables scattered throughout the space, a moderate selection of brews, and a diverse calendar provide a space to kick back and listen. Guests who talk over the tunes will receive not-so-subtle indications to pipe down! Come out for a cocktail and meet the band you’ll be seeing at The Garden in ten years.
- For those who want to dig into the city’s rich indie scene, there is no better room than Rockwood Music Hall. With three different stages hosting acts of all sizes, stop by any night of the week for a fantastically curated evening of music. The lush lighting, surreptitiously located second floor, and incredible talent will make a fan out of you and introduce you to your next favorite band.
- Irving Plaza has been just about everything since opening its doors in 1860, but the locale found its stride in ’78 when it became an intimate, much-beloved rock venue, having featured The Ramones, Talking Heads, Paul McCartney, and T.I. From rock to punk to hip hop, expect a variety of sounds where everything is turned up to 11.
- For a slightly more mainstream vibe, stay on the lookout for the reopening of Webster Hall, which been doing double-duty as a music venue and club since 1886.
