Music From The Sole: Live Album Release
Joe's Pub425 Lafayette Street, New York 10003
Music From The Sole comes to Joe’s Pub for a live album release, billed as Music From The Sole: Live Album Release. The listing does not name individual performers or specify the evening’s lineup, guest artists, or set format beyond that release focus. The show takes place in Joe’s Pub’s converted-library room, where audience members sit at velvet couches and candle-lit tables near the stage; dinner and drinks are served during performances.
Available information identifies Music From The Sole by name but does not establish the act’s hometown, musical style, regular lineup, or wider collaborators. Its own site includes a New York Times assessment by dance critic Gia Kourlas of Leonardo Sandoval’s footwork: “an articulate, musical whisper.” Kourlas also wrote that he seemed to glide above his feet. In the passage quoted on the act’s site, Sandoval is accompanied by bassist Greg Richardson. Those details point to a performance built around Sandoval’s dancing and responsive bass, though the available material does not confirm who will appear at this particular album-release show.
The stage is set in a converted library space with a striped bar and photos of legends like Leonard Cohen and Amy Winehouse lining the walls. You'll find yourself seated on velvet couches or at candle-lit tables, close enough to hear every note from the back. The sound, engineered by technicians who've worked with John Legend and The Notorious B.I.G., is consistently ranked among the best in New York. Three shows a day, dinner and drinks served throughout, and a menu ranging from Italian small plates to craft cocktails; it's a place where music and conversation flow together, and where both rising stars and legends have made their U.S. debuts.
