Blake Morgan
The Bitter End147 Bleecker Street, New York 10012
A native New Yorker raised on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, Blake Morgan is a recording artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose work pairs “biting post-punk” with AM pop and windows-down indie rock. He has recorded and produced artists from Lenny Kravitz to Lesley Gore; The Washington Post praised his “killer pop-rock instincts.”
The Bitter End has been a fixture of Greenwich Village since 1961, known as one of New York City's oldest rock clubs. It's a modest basement club with a stage and a bar, where the audience sits close to the performers. The room has exposed brick walls and a rustic feel, and the atmosphere is warm and conversational. Shows are typically ticketed with a small cover charge, and the evening combines listening to live music with casual conversation and drinks. The venue has hosted legends like Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, and continues to be a place where songwriters and musicians share new material. It's a steady, reliable spot for live music in the city.
