QUOTES:

“A forward-thinking venue that seeks to showcase disparate musical styles under one roof…artistically planned eclecticism.”
– Time Out New York
 
“The place isn’t merely cool, as the New York Times has dubbed it, the venue is a downright musical marvel.”
– Los Angeles Times
 
“The coolest place to hear contemporary music”
– The New York Times
 
“Just when you thought all artistic integrity had been sucked out of NYC’s cookie-cutter nightlife, Greenwich Village gets a performance space fit for orchestras and punk rockers alike.”
– Shecky’s
 
“Every other venue should pay attention to what these guys are doing…They absolutely get it.”
– Manhattan Magazine
 
“[LPR is] an epicenter for adventurous music”
– The New York Times
 
“No surprise, really: Le Poisson Rouge ,in both its chic veneer and its earnest disregard for genre boundaries, has embraced a style and ethos fostered by the Kronos Quartet for more than three decades. In any given week at the club you might hear classical post-Minimalism, beat-heavy electronica, evanescent chamber pop and clever world-music fusions.”
– The New York Times
