Welcome to the ‘Listening Party’

Aimed at Bushwick public schools, local students gear up for urban adventures.

Summer’s coming, and the music world is toying with our emotions

All Photos by Ali Boin for Bushwick Daily A unique East Williamsburg bar and performance venue called Sunnyvale held its grand opening party this past Saturday. Located at 1031 Grand Street, the name is a nod to the Canadian television show Trailer Park Boys, but it’s not a themed bar. The name came about after hours of debate when […]

The snow has (mostly) melted, the groundhog saw its shadow and Daylight Savings is almost a month away

CMJ festival is the music lover’s mid-fall holiday

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

[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. […]

The weeks go by and the music stays great

Have the post-Halloween blues got you down? Still feeling burnt out from last night’s spooky celebrations? Not a chance! Halloween was just the beginning; the weekend is upon us, so don’t stop now! (Plus, we need to work off all those Reese’s Pieces.) Starting Friday night, keep the festivities going with Grooms, Au Revoir Simone, […]

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

It features pole dancers, break dancers and some seriously heavy vibes from the artist […]

We were going to preview the new Daft Punk album this week on Listening Party but iTunes, and possibly every other music publication from here to Uranus, seemed to beat us to the punch

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

Say goodbye to stuffing your winter coat, scarf, and gloves in some corner at a show- Spring finally graced us with her presence

We’re back in New York with another edition of ‘Listening Party,’ so get an earful of something new

Welcome back to a new edition of ‘Listening Party’ where we invite you to listen, and party, along to neoteric sounds from Bushwick, Brooklyn & Beyond

Do you like bikes? Do you like abandoned churches? How does being in an audience of thousands of people watching 100 fixed gear cyclists speeding around a track inside of an abandoned church in Bushwick sound?

If you’re one of the 200,000 people to descend upon Austin’s city limits to partake in SXSW (and you know how to do it right now), and you want to see some of your favorite Brooklyn/Bushwick bands, you can do so at one of two places – at an official showcase (where festival badges/wristbands ARE required) or at one of the many free shows they will be playing next week

Drums + Guitar/Bass/Other +/- vocals  = Music = Head-bobbing –> Dancing –> Total Happiness

All I know is that on the Super Bowl Sunday there were a lot of great things that weren’t sports-related going on, and one of them was a great show at Shea Stadium with Oberhofer, Total Slacker, Shadow Walker, Lodro, and Night Visions
