Have you walked past that closed down bar in Ridgewood on Harman St and Seneca Ave with the crazy neon signs and the blacked out windows thinking someone needs to do something with this place? You will thrilled to learn that hey, someone’s doing something with this place! Ridgewood resident, bartendress, and musician Laura Regan is fulfilling a longtime dream to finally open her own venue

400 artists; six walls; two rooms filled with their small works

Turn up the lights in here, baby, extra bright y’all need to read this

We can pretty much all agree: 2014 was an incredible year in music

Our dear friends over at  epic 12-piece funk and soul band The Love Supreme have been up to a lot of great things lately, including a bangin’ CMJ performance, studio time to shape up their first LP, and now, filming their debut music video! And guess what?  They want YOU to be part of the fun

Oh, Radio, Radio, things are not looking out very good for you

CMJ festival frenzy has taken over the NYC’s music scene, however one Bushwick music venue has not been able to host live music due to a temporary restraining order issued by the court

If you’re like us and you loooooove music festivals, you may be quietly shedding tears over the (impending) arrival of fall and the end of festival season

When 

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 […]

Are you PUMPED that it’s finally getting warm? Yeah, maybe it’s a little rainy, but that’s all part of spring on the upswing. What better way to rally in the gorgeous weather than to rock out at some rad shows?! We’ve crafted a list featuring a couple really great free concerts balanced out by some slightly […]

Everything seems to be going full speed in life lately. The days are longer, but they go by faster and there’s more to be done. Ferris Bueller said it right when he quipped, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” So, taking heed […]

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

We’re back from Austin, suitcase full of freebies, ears ringing, and working our way through the week-long hangover that was SXSW

As you may know, Bushwick Daily is heading down to SXSW! We’ve already filled you in on our 10 Bands That Will Break Big at the festival this year, provided a how-to guide for fans flocking to Austin, and even put together some  festival fashion recommendations! We won’t feel too far from home in the Lone Star State since we’ll be in the good company; tons of great Bushwick bands will be present, playing their hearts out all across town

So, the Olympics are over, with the USA ranking 4th in over all medals, but first in Gold medal pranks with another gem from Jimmy Kimmel

Dear Bushwick has been a neighborhood hit since they first opened their doors on Wilson Ave in the fall of 2012 and introduced us to a classy modern version of British pub food, (hold the mushy peas)!  Perhaps there is no better reflection of the British joint done on New York soil of than their taplist, which currently features malty brews from the cosmopolitan epicenters on both sides of the pond: the Coffee Porter from Meantime, a brewery based in London, and ERIC More Cowbell! Chocolate Milk Stout from SingleCut, a small Queens-based craft brewery

2014 is the Year of the Horse according to the Chinese Calendar, so let’s giddy up over to some epic shows that you can tell your children about. Hell, you might even be able to tell your kid about that crazy February night in cold ass Brooklyn when he or she was first conceived. Or, […]

Didn’t win a Grammy this week? Yeah, neither did we– unfortunately, we can’t all be Macklemore

Trying to find ways to keep warm this weekend? How ’bout hitting up some sweet shows and having a really hard time choosing which ones? Will you try to squeeze in and finally see Macaulay Culkin’s Pizza themed Velvet Underground cover band (The Pizza Underground) for free on Friday? Or perhaps you wanna get sweaty […]

In a heartfelt introduction to the series, promoters My Socialist and Supercrush Studios expressed their feelings about the arctic blast that’s defined this season: “this Winter is harshing my vibe in a serious way

The weeks go by and the music stays great

This week’s Listening Party features mashup geniuses The Hood Internet who are playing next Thursday for free! Listening Party is a curated weekly column promoting music discovery and encouraging concert-going

This next installment of Friday First spotlights local Bushwick favorites and all-around awesome dudes, The Denzels

Loud, vile, discordant, disgusting

You may have heard about the Brain-Cave Festival, a local music festival going on next weekend in Greenpoint
