  • Martin Rivas and Rachel Platten at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    The last time we saw Martin Rivas perform a full set was September 13th, 2010, over four months ago! That night, the set before him was Rachel Platten. That show was at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 and I wrote about it in this post. It was my first time seeing each of […]

  • Alex Wong and Guests at Rockwood Music Hall

    It’s been a month since we’ve seen Alex Wong perform at Rockwood Music Hall. It’s not good to go much more than a month between doses of Alex, so it’s good that he had a show last night. In fact, after seeing his solo show at Rockwood 1 on December 9th, we saw […]

  • Morgan Holland, Chris Ayer and Matt Simons at Rockwood Music Hall

    Morgan Holland had her EP Release Party last night at Rockwood Music Hall. She invited most of the people who performed on the EP to play with her last night. Two of them opened for Morgan before joining her in the extended (two hour) set. Chris Ayer was first up. We’ve only seen […]

  • Melissa Tong and Pork Chop Willie at Banjo Jims

    This is my first post for 2011. It’s 24 hours late because I also just upgraded the disk and OS on my laptop, which caused me to be down all day yesterday. We love bluegrass music and we love all things Melissa Tong. We’ve seen Melissa perform a number of violin styles, but […]
