Loaded with historic significance in the music industry

Historically, NYC is a center of music development, recording, and performance, carving the sounds that would come to touch the country and the world. When elite jazz musicians such as Louis Armstrong made way to NYC for higher gig pay, other jazz artists--the likes of Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald--followed. With so many great minds and performers in one space, popularity of the genre grew and innovation flourished. In the 1940s through the 1960s, Greenwich Village was the center of folk revival, as Bob Dylan, Jan Baez, Woodie Guthrie, and countless others reintegrated the genre into protest and activism. Music was resistance. During 1970s disco craze, figures like Cher, Andy Warhol, Bianca Jagger, and Donna Summer crowded its club scene; Studio 54 became synonymous with disco fever and party life. In dodgy clubs, cramped spaces of the city, and the make it or break it stage of CBGB, punk and alternative artists ranging from Blondie to the Ramones ignited, eventually blasting onto worldwide radars. The attitudes of many musical movements and genres were crafted in a uniquely New York way, as talent, opportunity, grit, and struggle came to a head. In this way, attending concerts in NYC is a tribute to music history and a contribution to the emergence of tomorrow’s sounds.

Concerts in NYC bring listeners to the verge of what is to come, the trends and sounds that will shape decades of music to come.
