About Me |
|
| Smalls 183 West 10th Street at 7th Ave. (212) 252-5091.Smalls was created in 1993 by jazz impresario Mitch Borden, a former nurse and the son of an art-gallery owner. The original Smalls was a raw basement space that quickly became the late-night hangout for a multi-generational assortment of jazz musicians. Many masters such as Frank Hewitt, Tommy Turrentine, Bubba Brooks, Jimmy Lovelace and Herman Foster made their final homes at Smalls and shared their musical legacy with an eager and dedicated younger crowd. Many of the well-known musicians of the current jazz scene cut their teeth at Smalls during this period. The list of musicians who played at Smalls at that time is enormous and includes such luminaries as: Brad Mehldau, Kurt Rosenwinkle, Josh Redman, Mark Turner, Brian Blade, Roy Hargrove, Peter Bernstein, Larry Goldings, Sacha Perry, Omer Avital, Jason Linder, Grant Stewart and Norah Jones among many, many others.During the financial trouble that followed New York City after September 11th, Smalls was forced to close. The control of the space changed hands but the popularity of the club did not allow it to end. Now musicians Spike Wilner and Lee Kostrinsky have partnered with Mitch Borden with the goal of restoring Smalls back to its original freewheeling and bohemian vibe. The club has been beautifully renovated and a full bar is now in service. The comfort and feeling of the club is amenable to after-hours hangs and the music again goes all night. Our doors open at 7:30. During the week and weekend our shows are at 8:30, 10:30, 12 and 1:30 AM. On Sunday our first show is at 7:30 and the next band at 10:00 with an afterhours session. Our cover is $20 which includes a drink of your choice from our bar and you can stay all night! We invite you to drop by, have a drink and listen to some great music at “New York’s Cutting Edge Jazz Club” | |
