Nestled in an old hair salon off the Montrose L, Billy’s Record Salon is the perfect place to go find rare and interesting records for a good price. Billy’s is run and curated by Billy Jones, the owner of New York music venue, Baby’s All Right, who has fantastic recommendations on what to listen to. I highly recommend carving out a chunk of time on a Sunday afternoon to listen to music, browse, and chat with Billy.

Baby's All Right is obviously popular, but their booking is really good -- can waltz in there any night and hear good tunes. The Lot Radio is a gem and same thing, their curation is what makes it. The Broadway is just a straight up spot

Bed stuy bar which hosts vinyl DJs most nights- pin ball machines are in the back. The worn in wooden benches and drink deals makes it feel homier than a most full blown “club” environments, but the dance floor opens up spontaneously whenever necessary.

Poet & songwriter best known as the frontman of “Silver Jews,“ and the lesser known “Purple Mountains,“ Berman has a way of exploring the beauty in the darker aspects of life. Berman tragically took his in 2019. He had such a special way with words both as a poet and a songwriter. My favorite song of his, “Famous Eyes” is linked above.

Founded in 1995, Broadcast was an English band that drew influences from 60s psychedelia, electronic, and experimental music. Following the death of their lead singer in 2011, Broadcast has found a new life and a cult following due to the mystery surrounding the band. I’ve linked my favorite album, Tender Buttons above.

Due to the involvement of the US Military Sponsoring SXSW, many bands and artists have opted to pull out of SXSW as protest for the ongoing genocide and Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine. I’m very proud of my friends from Perfectly Imperfect and Baby’s All Right for dropping out of SXSW, and for standing in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Free Palestine 🍉
