Description

Undaunted by the weighted expectations given its address at the former Village Gate site, LPR is now offering a nightly program of what our own music editor calls "relentless and delightful eclecticism," whether your thing is John Cage, Deerhunter, or 'Crooked Disco.' Seating 250 comfortably or a standing 700 cozily, the classy but non-garish basement space conjures moods that can change wildly along with the music, but it's never packed or sweltering; on the non-rawk front, LPR is also a great place to watch major sporting events on the enormous LCD screen and nosh on Cajun tater tots.

    (Le) Poisson Rouge is a multimedia art cabaret founded by musicians on the site of the historic Village Gate. Dedicated to the fusion of popular and art cultures in music, film, theater, dance, and fine art, the venue's mission is to revive the symbiotic relationship between art and revelry; to establish a creative asylum for both artists and audiences.

    The only thing pretentious about (le) poisson rouge is the name, actually. Parentheses, generally, do not rock. But in honor of this young Village spot's relentless and delightful eclecticism--raucous dance parties, elegant new-classical premieres, straight-ahead rock shows--let's re-adjust our definition of "rock." Undaunted by the weighted expectations given its address at the former Village Gate site, LPR is now offering the most well-rounded monthly slate of gigs in New York... More »
