6 Delancey St - New York - NY

Loading video...

Tucked into a historic Bowery building from the late 1920s, this venue at 6 Delancey Street has cycled through several lives since its construction just before the market crash. After sitting dormant through the war years, it eventually transitioned into upscale retail before the neighborhood's fortunes shifted and the space fell into different hands. These days, especially on cold winter evenings when you're looking for live music and warmth, the energy inside contrasts sharply with the quiet streets outside. The venue carries echoes of its layered past while hosting performances that draw crowds year-round, transforming this corner of the city's oldest neighborhood into a gathering spot.

The moment those doors swing open, you're stepping into a space where the energy crackles—especially on those crisp winter evenings when the warmth inside feels like an embrace. Grab a cocktail crafted with care, order something from the kitchen, and settle in for live music that fills every corner of the room. You'll be inches away from the stage where legends have actually stood and played. This Manhattan institution has hosted everyone from Tony Bennett to Ray Charles, Oscar Peterson to Natalie Cole, Sarah Vaughan to Dizzy Gillespie. The place carries the weight of that history in the best way—it's a room where jazz, blues, latin, Brazilian, fusion, R&B, soul, and contemporary acts all find their moment under the lights. What started as a jazz destination has grown into something broader. Any given night might bring you face to face with world-class performers across multiple genres, all in an intimate setting where you can actually feel the music rather than just hear it.

The Bitter End

147 Bleecker Street - New York - NY

Opening in 1961 on Bleecker Street, this Greenwich Village fixture has hosted some of the most pivotal moments in folk and rock history. The mid-1970s saw the venue become the launching pad for Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue, drawing performances from Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Roger McGuinn, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, T-Bone Burnett, Mick Ronson, and Ronee Blakely among countless others. Though it briefly operated under a different name during that same era, the club eventually returned to its original identity. Winter nights here carry that classic Greenwich Village energy—intimate stages and packed rooms full of music lovers huddled together while the city gets cold outside. Fred Weintraub's vision for the space continues to define live music in lower Manhattan.

Cafe Wha?

The Café Wha? was the original stomping ground for prodigies Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix. Bruce Springsteen, Peter, Paul & Mary, Kool and the Gang, as well as comedians, Richard Pryor and Bill Cosby also began their road to stardom on this historic stage. The Café Wha? encompassed the Beat Generation and continues to hold tight to its spirit, entertaining all walks of life.

Smalls Live Jazz

Walk into a space where improvisation meets intention, where musicians translate raw emotion into sound in real time. The genre's roots run deep through American culture, drawing from African rhythmic traditions, gospel intensity, blues vulnerability, and the creative resilience of communities who turned struggle into art. What emerged was something entirely new—music that refuses to sit still, that breathes and changes with each performance. The word itself carries history, once tied to underground venues and spaces pushed to society's margins. But the music transcended those origins, becoming a sophisticated art form celebrated worldwide. Whether a musician follows a composed structure or ventures into spontaneous territory, jazz demands conversation between players and audience alike. Winter evenings hit differently here. The warmth radiating from the stage, the intimate crowd gathered close, the way breath becomes visible in the cool air outside—it all sharpens the experience. There's something about experiencing live improvisation when the world outside feels still and cold that makes the energy onstage feel even more alive, more urgent, more human.

S.O.B.'s

200 Varick St - New York - NY

21 years ago, June 1982 to be exact, something began to bubble on Varick Street in lower Manhattan. Fueled by a total commitment to exposing the musical wealth and heritage of the Afro-Latino Diaspora to as many people as possible, Larry Gold opened the doors to what would become New York City's premier venue for world music; Sounds Of Brazil, commonly known as S.O.B.'S.

Village Vanguard

178 7th Ave S - New York - NY

Today, time and the eternal bottom line have distilled the Vanguard experience down to the essentials: music, drinks (no coffee or tea) and history. The angled walls display generation-old photographs and posters of those who once regularly played the room: Charles Mingus. Dexter Gordon. Elvin Jones. A battered tuba breaks the array, and an unusual double-belled euphonium (a gift from trumpeter Jabbo Smith, it turns out) hangs above the bar.<br> It may seem so artfully minimal, but then jazz culture has always prized economy over embellishment. Still, Ms. Gordon feels that "this little old club deserves a birthday of its own. It's going to get a cake and a buffet: a real party for a 70-year-old grande dame." The celebration will last a full week, from Feb. 14 to 20, featuring a new or established Vanguard favorite headlining each night: trumpeter Roy Hargrove, the jazz-rock trio Bad Plus, guitarist Jim Hall, Philadelphia's famed Heath Brothers, and pianist Bill Charlap.

10011 Old Chelsea

Highline Ballroom

431 W 16th St - New York - NY

The High Line is a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure set to open in 2008 as a public open space. Running through the West Side neighborhoods of the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea and Clinton/Hell's Kitchen, it was built in the 1930s to remove dangerous trains from Manhattan’s streets. No trains have run on it since 1980. Friends of the High Line (FHL), a community-based 501(c)(3) non-profit group, formed in 1999 when the historic structure was under threat of demolition. FHL is currently working with the City of New York to transform the structure into a park. The High Line south of 30th Street was donated to the City by CSX Transportation in 2005. The team of Field Operations and Diller Scofidio + Renfro is now at work on a design for the High Line’s public landscape. Construction began in spring 2006. The first phase (Gansevoort Street to 20th Street) is projected to open in 2008. For more information, and to see designs for the new park, please visit www.thehighline.org.
