About Me

Held from 7-10 on the first 3 mondays of every month THE BLEECKER STREET FOLK SESSION is an atmosphere to nurture and promote new talent in NYC where songwriters and session musicians can drink, jam and swap numbers. The session takes place in Bleeker Street landmark THE RED LION. It is a serious and professional space to play with ample,quality P.A. and lights. There is always an engineer and plenty of guitars, tuners and leads around. The West Village and the Red Lion draw a crowd of music lovers who want to hear live music continually. Plus there is always a group of respectful performers who hang out, ensuring a great audience every week. Asides from the range of talented regular performers each week will see a featured artist from many walks of life. If you would like to perform or know someone who would like to perform send us a message!!!
