Suzanne Vega Celebrates New Release with Livestream Concert

In celebration of her just-released, career-spanning album, “An Evening of New York Songs and Stories,” Suzanne Vega will play two globally livestreamed concerts from New York City’s iconic Blue Note Jazz Club in Greenwich Village. 

The first will go live on Oct. 7 at 9 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time for North American fans and the second will go live on Oct.  at 3 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, to accommodate U.K. and European audiences. 

In a gesture of support for the independent live music industry, currently facing the existential threat of the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, Vega has partnered on the shows with more than 80 independent venues and promoters in the United States and additional promoters and major festivals in Europe

The full-band set will feature the album’s New York-centric repertoire, honoring Vega’s long musical relationship with her hometown. She will be joined on the Blue Note stage by longtime guitarist Gerry Leonard, bassist Jeff Allen and keyboardist Jason Hart. For tickets and more information, go to: bochcenter.org.
