Looking to have your socks blown off this Saturday night? Look no further than our show at Pianos featuring Luke Rathborne , Ruby Coast , and Strange Shapes , three bands that I've been listening to nonstop for the past few weeks. Tickets are only $10, which happens to be half the price you'd spend if you went for dinner at Earth Matters or Katz's before the show. Half the price! If you're wondering what happened to YAWN , who was originally slated to play the show, they unfortunately ran into [...]
Spent your last few dollars on clearance Peeps from Duane Reade, but want to catch a show tonight? No worries, we've got you completely covered.

Check out their stuff [...]
The swarm of amazing shows has returned once again to New York City. That can only mean the return of our suggested shows section. We took a break, but thought it would be appropriate with the spring/summer approaching. Here's our choices for the best gigs this weekend here in New York City. Friday, April 22 Kid Cudi @ Roseland Ballroom ( Buy ) The Dig @ [...]
Even // Wasteland by Port St. Willow Still not sure what you're doing tonight? Well, I have your solution. I'll be heading to Manhattan's LES (lower east side) to see Nick Principe aka Port St. Willow and Peter Silberman of The Antlers play one of the most anticipated shows of the year (for me at least). I couldn't be more excited for this one. Port St. Willow's Even // Wasteland , released late last year, is one of the [...]
What are you doing this Saturday? I know I speak for everyone at The Wild Honey Pie when I say we'd love to see you at Pianos for our next 'The Wild Honey Pie Presents' show!

Tickets are $8 if you buy them online, $10 at the door. Doors at 7:30PM, first band's on at 8:30PM. All the links, plus songs from each band below. [...]
![SUGGESTED NYC CONCERTS [SXSW EDITION]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3281282_lg.jpg)
With Interpol here, Foo Fighters there, and unknown indie bands literally everywhere, Austin, Texas, becomes a music industry mecca for a week in March for the South by Southwest Music Festival. And while 97% of the artists I adore temporarily migrate to the sunny south, I’m left up north in the cold schizophrenic weather of New York City feeling “bandless”. But the reality is, this city always has anything to offer. So, I could mourn the temporary decrease of bands playing in NYC during SXSW week, or I can still look [...]
We've already told you about all the free parties to RSVP for and our suggested official showcases . Now, in my opinion, the most important part of the puzzle. Our 15 bands to watch out for in Austin. We love each and every one of these acts with all our hearts, and now it's time for you to share our passion. Who are your bands to watch for at SXSW this year? ----------------------- Givers ----------------------- Lafayette's Givers took [...]
Holy goddam shit. It's already SXSW time, which means I'll be down in Austin, sprinting from venue to venue to catch all of my favorite bands and getting blown away by bands I had no idea existed. Beautiful. If you decided to shell out the dough for a $700 plastic necklace that will get you into all of the official SXSW showcases, this list is for you. Sure, there's the iPhone app and the schedule pamphlet, but there's still a ton of shows down there and it can quickly become info overload. If you're like me and [...]
I've had it in my head that we'd do something at SXSW in 2011, but in all honesty, I couldn't have asked for a more exciting opportunity than teaming up with Eventbrite to bring you a free party with some of my favorite bands in the world. Join us in Austin on March 16th for the Eventbrite Party curated by The Wild Honey Pie, and you'll get to see amazing sets from: Superhumanoids (1PM) - @superhumanoids The Jezabels (1:50PM) - @thejezabels ARMS [...]
Green = Suggested Parties South By Southwest is, by far, my favorite week of the entire year. It simply embodies all the things I stand for: fantastic music, free drinks, great parties, and great people! Though I've gone badgeless for the past several years, I've still had quite the amazing time (perhaps even more so since I didn't overpay on a $700 plastic necklace). This time around, I thought I would share the love by compiling a list of RSVPs to the free parties worth [...]
FOR COMPLETE LISTINGS HEAD TO OHMYROCKNESS I'm not going to make excuses. I dropped the ball this week and didn't get my suggestions up in time. Oh well. Here's my pics for shows of the week. Which ones are you going to make it to? Wednesday, January 5th ---------------- Country Mice (Formerly We Are Country Mice ), [...]
It's hard to be a Jew on Christmas. My friends don't let me join in any games. And I can't sing Christmas songs, or decorate a Christmas tree, or leave water out for Rudolph 'cause there's something wrong with me. There's some good shows this week in NYC. Check out the ones I suggest below. ------------------ Monday, December 20th ------------------ Bee and Flower , And The Wiremen , Lady Lamb the Beekeeper , [...]
With the holiday season in full swing, this is the best time to be here in New York City. This week, Florence and the Machine , Ben Folds , Nada Surf , and many more will be spreading Christmas joy . Which shows are you going to this week? S. Carey (of Bon Iver ), Winter Hinterland @ Highline Ballroom ( Buy - $15) [...]
There's a ton of holiday parties going down in New York this week, but if you're looking for an excuse to leave early, you can check out the following shows. Yo La Tengo's Hanukkah-fest is still happening, and that's not the only great show at Maxwell's. Friday night, Atlas Sound is hitting the stage early in the night with Elizabeth & the Catapult , April Smith , and The Canon Logic going on a bit later in the night. Either that or check out The New Pornographers , Cake , [...]
Every week, we scour the web for what's going down in the world of New York music. It's Hanukkah week, which means the annual Yo La Tengo shows at Maxwell's as well as the 5th Annual Festival of Lights with Matisyahu .
