I’ve got you covered this week. Skip the groceries and head out to eat after work at these great shows around town. This weekend brings lots of opportunities to engage in CNY culture and support the local scene.
Tuesday
It’s always a good day to listen to live music at 443. Grab some tickets and food then sit back and relax. Doors 5:30 pm.
Five albums into an acclaimed career, Sam Morrow has carved out a sound that exists somewhere outside of genre and geography. It’s his version of modern-day American roots music: a mix of roadhouse rock & roll, bluesy R&B, and country-fried funky-tonk, driven forward by groove, grease, and guitars.
Championed by outlets like NPR and Rolling Stone, Morrow’s first four albums turned him into one of the West Coast’s biggest Americana exports. The appeal wasn’t just the swaggering, swampy music itself; it was also the sharp storytelling and unfiltered insights of a songwriter who wasn’t afraid to shine a light on the skeletons in his closet. Balancing honesty with self-deprecating humor, Morrow became a working-class hero for those struggling to follow the straight and narrow.

“It’s 1927. Join Gibson Girl and actress Evelyn Nesbit in her New York City speakeasy “Chez Evelyn” for a look back at her extraordinary life. In her cabaret act, Evelyn recalls the Crime of the Century: when her husband, erratic millionaire Harry K. Thaw shot Evelyn’s former abuser-turned-lover Stanford White at the rooftop theater of Madison Square Garden in 1906. Evelyn’s subsequent years of court trials, emotional turmoil, and ultimate survival are revealed with theatrical panache, sensitivity, and grit. Featuring music of the era, this new work features full staging, choreography, lighting, and musical performances. Audience feedback will be requested at each show, allowing patrons to shape the development of this piece.”
