neddyoThis is definitely one of *those* weeks in NYC livemusic. Unmissable shit will be missed. Best problems.
Tonight: Laurie Anderson backed by Sexmob. Legends upon legends at BAM. Super fascinating as expected. And home at a reasonable hour, my localest venue.
Tonight: Stop 1:: Daniel Villarreal is a freakin groove merchant. More people should be talking about this funky awesomeness. The Chicago drummer and his band laying it down at Public Records on a Wednesday night.

Stop 2:: perfectly-timed* jaunt over to Joe's Pub for one of my favorite songwriters of the past 10 years: Caitlyn Canty. Sounding oh so sweet in a duo with pedal steel. Yes!
(*when the music starts a minute after you take your seat = pro's pro)
Stop 3: late night solo meanderings with Brad Barr (and a bunch of guitars, knobs, pedals et cetera) at Rockwood. Very cool.

Three winners there, each set special in its own way. Livemusic'n at its finest.
Tonight: Stop 1:: early set at Barbes. Old school Americana with personal fave Nora Brown... and friends. I love Brown so much, some day will be sawherwhen material. History lesson and sweet music all in one.

Just announced they have a Tiny Desk coming out next week. Cool!
Stop 2: boom!pow!
My Morning Jacket playing It Still Moves in full at the Beacon.

Well, that ruled. Stretched the album out to 1:45. Kind of nuts. Big encore coming.
Review: My Morning Jacket at Beacon Theatre last night::

Holy shit! Jim James singing The Wind in duet with Madi Diaz. One of my all-time favorite songs. Like top 5. Chillllls.
*Cat Stevens.
So happy
Today: fun matinee at the Whitney with John Zorn playing live soundtracks to Harry Smith films with Kenny Grohowski, Jorge Roeder, and Ikue Mori. Dreamlike.

Tonight: "nothing but blue skies" with Daniel Donato & Cosmic Country at a packed Brooklyn Bowl. Yeah, sure, a third night of MMJ was tempting, but I think this is the right call.
It's a golden age of next-gen jammers!

Metzger sit in!! Woo!
Well, that was unexpected and... freakin great.
One nice thing about Mastodon is I can hypothetically say something like "man, I hate Brooklyn Bowl!" and not worry that anyone is gonna see it. 😂
Drew but 7/27/25 GA ➡️ Reprise@Neddyo It is totally a public space that is essentially private. I love it here!
Chop@Neddyo Damn. That’s a twangathon in the best way.
@chopaganda Donato vs Metzger on a Willie Nelson cover? The twang was DEEP.
Eli
Seth@Neddyo So freakin goood.
