Club Europa in Brooklyn

Club Europa
Club Europa

Like Studio B and Warsaw, Club Europa is a Polish nightclub cashing in on the demand for (indie) rock shows in the now-hip sections of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NYC.

“Europa a new venue located in the thriving “it” neighborhood of Greenpoint, Brooklyn (a mere 3 blocks from McCarren Pool and 4 blocks from Warsaw). The 550 capacity space can host shows for audiences 16 & up and features mind blowing sound, lighting and artist’s VIP space and is available for live bookings 7 days a week.”

The people behind the shows know what they’re doing too – Robert Johnson (Scenic, Knitting Factory) and Scott Long (Scenic, Knitting Factory, Wetlands) started it, and now they have Bob D’Amico (Northsix) booking shows. Here’s a sample of what’s coming up:

Mon Mar 12 – Heavy Trash featuring Jon Spencer & Matt Verta-Ray & PowerSolo (TONIGHT)
Fri Mar 30 – Hella w/ Dirty Projectors / Who’s Your Favorite Son God? (tix)
Sat Apr 07 – The World/Inferno Friendship Society w/ Paint it Black / The Vicious (tix)
Sat Apr 14 – The Locust / Cattle Decapitation – Daughters (tix)
