It’s that time again! America’s Birthday; another great reason to have outdoor shows, BBQ everything in sight and celebrate for the entire four days whether or not you have any patriotism in your bones

We’re constantly astounded by the incredible live music scene here in Bushwick, and we’re having trouble finding creative ways to say so every single Thursday

Daylight Savings is upon us, readers. Ah, the feeling of the sky not being pitch-black at 5pm! Life is good. Although we lost an hour, we gained sunlight, and thus, hopefully, we’re all waking from winter hibernation—and weather has been fluctuating as dramatically as Kanye’s daily commentary, which means everyone should be feeling the need to seize the beautiful […]

Ever get the tinglies when listening to your favorite band, or maybe some new band, or maybe even some band you never thought you’d develop a music crush on? Even if you’re a dude, admit it: You’re somebody’s fangirl

Celebrate gift-giving season right here in Bushwick.

While certain sources claim New York might get “hammered” by Hurricane Joaquin, we have a feeling the only kind of hammered you’re going to get this weekend is the kind that takes place in Brooklyn… at a music venue… at one of these shows…

Oi, we’ve got the August blues

Getting lost and finding yourself in a Brooklyn DIY space can turn out to be the best adventure of your life

Instagram Takeover – Ariel Churnin – Fall foliage, tree, changing colors Rough winter winds and the lack of sunshine are conducive to start feeling blue. And even Bushwick, an old good friend who was highfiving us all summer is suddenly all grey and cold. But Bushwick, you can’t fool us, there’s so much to appreciate you! Just […]

It’s cold outside

CMJ only seems like a drag if a) you’re in a band that’s playing 3+ shows; b) you don’t know how to navigate the madness

We hope you are all as jazzed about CMJ as we are! The festival is the College Music Journal’s “Music Marathon”- a completely amazing (and exhausting) week (October 21-25, 2014) of live music, giving the music community a chance to catch the best new artists from around the world before they blow up

“Get up, Get down / Get Up, Get down”

The much-anticipated long holiday weekend is nearly here, and while many of us are busy planning our backyard barbecues or seeking rooftops for fireworks viewing, select Bushwick galleries will also be holding opening receptions Saturday and Sunday to add to the July 4th festivities

The weekend may be looking thunderstorm-laden, but that means nothing for dedicated show-goers but an excuse to your golashes and fill up on Dark’n’stormies (we recommend Tandem’s). Then hit the wet pavement and bask in some light rain on your way to one of these amazing 9 top concerts of the weekend. We’ve got festivals, free shows, “art spaces” and […]

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”dN8fROFYJAemosL3KkZKvVIwUAfhxNWH”] While there are still ridiculously cold days, we can all be thankful that spring is (mostly) here and finally we can party outdoors… or continue to hang indoors, thankful we can do so without giant coats.  We can potentially start our hangouts earlier and possibly outdoors, and maybe even have a backyard BBQ. […]

SXSW may be fading into our rearview mirror but the hangover that came along with it isn’t

Welcome to 2014!  We hope  you’re sticking to your resolutions this year! 2014 will not be like last year, the year before, or the year before that one

Our Halloween to do list includes a lot of parties, bars, music, and boozing

It’s pretty much felt like fall ever since we pulled those jackets out from the back of our closets sometime in mid-August

Back-to-School? Pshhh

Summer’s supposed to be ending

Looking to get out of town this weekend? Local music, art and community organization, our beloved Silent Barn is putting on a festival of games, installations, and performances in strange and beautiful places this weekend upstate

Summer is peaking, and the week(end) doesn’t end this Thursday, dear friends

Are you staying in the city for the 4th of July? Good for you

you know you want to. It’s officially summer as we’ve all come to realize. There are pluses and minuses for concert goers when summertime rolls around. Cons: venues are even sweatier, sidewalks and rooftops are more crowded, smoke clings to the skin in heat, fresh air is no less fresh when shared. Pros: free outdoor shows, […]

It’s getting to that time of the year where great shows are happening every day of the week
