The Oz Noy-Joe Bonamassa Band Feat. Steve Ferrone & Will Lee (Early Show)
The Bitter End147 Bleecker Street, New York 10012
The Bitter End hosts the early show billed as The Oz Noy-Joe Bonamassa Band, featuring Steve Ferrone and Will Lee. The night is presented as a band performance built around the two named leaders, with Ferrone and Lee singled out in the bill as featured guests. It takes place at the long-running Greenwich Village club, a basement room that has been part of the neighborhood’s live-music circuit since 1961. The setting is close to the stage, with the club’s bar and exposed-brick room framing the performance.
The billing identifies Oz Noy, Joe Bonamassa, Steve Ferrone and Will Lee, but supplies no further biographical notes, repertoire details, previous collaborations or critical quotations for this particular appearance. What is clear is the particular combination named for the evening: an Oz Noy-Joe Bonamassa band configuration with Ferrone and Lee featured alongside them, rather than a solo set or a generic house-band listing. The Bitter End’s history includes performances by Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, and it remains a room where musicians present live material directly to a closely placed audience.
