Hope your calendar isn’t packed this week, because there are a fair number of NYC area shows at which your presence is recommended. While several of the ones listed are part of this month’s weekly residencies, a couple – like The Little Willies, playing Wednesday at The Bell House – are one-timers that don’t come along often, so get ’em while the gettin’s good. And although pricey, there are still a few tickets left for the Chris Thile/Michael Daves show at Lincoln Center, so act fast.
For video of The Little Willies and to hear NPR’s just-posted First Listen, see the previous blog post.
