The classic red brick stage backdrop and intimate vibe make this historic venue almost as iconic as its headliners. For over 50 years, our audiences have been blown away by legendary artists like Stevie Wonder, Bob Dylan, Lady Gaga, Jackson Browne, Neil Diamond, Gavin DeGraw, Woody Allen, Jon Stewart, Randy Newman, Billy Crystal, Tommy James, Norah Jones, Donnie Hathaway, Curtis Mayfield, and thousands more. The Bitter End is located in the heart of Greenwich Village. We are open seven days a week and showcase live music every night, including singer/songwriters, rock, blues, jazz, funk, alternative, hip-hop, spoken word, a capella, and country. Every Monday and every other Sunday we host open jam sessions for newcomers and aspiring musicians, as well as an acoustic open mic every Saturday afternoon. At The Bitter End, you never know who or what you'll hear next.

🎸 Fun Fact! Before became a legendary NYC music venue, 147 Bleecker Street had a very different story.

A New York culture archivist friend uncovered this photo from 1940, when the city photographed every building across all five boroughs. At the time, 147 Bleecker was home to a Vatican City religious book company.

Talk about a plot twist. 👀
