Richie Cannata's Monday Night Jam
The Bitter End147 Bleecker Street, New York 10012
Richie Cannata’s Monday Night Jam is the billed event at The Bitter End, presented as a Monday-night jam rather than a show with a separately listed supporting cast or lineup. No individual performers, guests, tribute, release, residency details, or other programme notes are provided for this date. The night takes place in the club’s basement performance room, where the stage and bar share a close-quarters setup with seated listeners near the players.
The available information identifies the act by its billed name, but provides no biographical background for Richie Cannata or further account of the jam’s musical personnel, repertoire, collaborators, hometown, or critical reception. What is documented is the setting: The Bitter End has been part of Greenwich Village since 1961 and is regarded as one of New York City’s oldest rock clubs. Its exposed-brick room has hosted artists including Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, while continuing to present songwriters and musicians sharing new material. For this Monday-night bill, the billing itself is the clearest indication of the format: a jam led under Richie Cannata’s name, with the particulars left open in the available listing information.
