What's going on Tuesday?
You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…
Spoon, Ron Gallo @ Brooklyn Steel
Indie rock elder statesmen Spoon have managed to stay relevant (and good) for more than two decades, no mean feat. That includes this year’s enjoyable Hot Thoughts. This is the first of two nights at Brooklyn Steel, and they’ll also play A Prairie Home Companion this weekend (taping at NYC’s Town Hall).
Bjork (guest speaker) @ Murmrr Theatre
Having just released the flute-harp-and-birdsong-filled new album Utopia, Bjork will talk about the record tonight as part of Pitchfork’s “Insight Out” series.
The Weather Station, James Elkington, Adeline Hotel @ Rough Trade
“I wanted to make a rock and roll record,” says The Weather Station’s Tamara Lindeman of her new self-titled album. “but one that sounded how I wanted it to sound, which of course is nothing like rock and roll.” Catch her gorgeous style of rock and roll tonight with the also very talented James Elkington on the bill as well.
Raekwon, IDK, Quiana Parks @ Good Room
Raekwon has been busy this year both with Wu-Tang and on his own, having released the solo album The Wild earlier in 2017. Tonight he plays this Heineken Green Room show, which is free with RSVP. If you’re going, don’t miss IDK, who recently put out his great debut album IWASVERYBAD.
Capone-N-Noreaga, DJ Mister Cee @ BB King’s
Queens rap duo Capone-N-Noreaga’s classic debut album The War Report turned 20 earlier this year, and they’re celebrating that anniversary tonight.
Exhumed, Arkaik, Organ Dealer, Knight Terror @ Saint Vitus
Death/gore vets Exhumed are still going strong, having recently released Death Revenge on Relapse. Tonight they’ll support the new album in Brooklyn.
Laurel Halo @ The Kitchen
NYC’s historic non-profit performance arts space The Kitchen hosts its recurring ‘Synth Nights’ series this week with Laurel Halo, who will be playing music from her new album Dust, which is her first “vocal” album since 2012’s Quarantine. This is night two of two.
Acoustic Hot Tuna @ City Winery
Blues rock veterans Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady are constantly on the road, and they’re currently embarking on an intimate, acoustic tour across the Northeast. This is one of a few shows at NYC’s City Winery.
Jean Grae, John Hodgman @ The Bell House
“Jean and John are friends. John Hodgman is still on television sometimes. Jean Grae used to rap more often. Just google them. The internet will tell you they have done a lot of stuff and had a lot of adventures and are the funniest, most charming people in the world. This is their variety show.”
Springsteen on Broadway
It’s the hottest ticket on Broadway: Bruce Springsteen playing solo at the intimate Walter Kerr Theatre, performing some of his biggest hits and telling stories about them. Originally set to run through February 3, Bruce has added an additional four months, now going through June.
Judy Collins @ Joe’s Pub
Folk icon Judy Collins pays tribute to the great Stephen Sondheim with this Joe’s Pub run that goes through Thursday.
