Mercury Lounge

New York, NY 10002
212-260-4700
One of the smallest halls in town still pulls the biggest up-and-coming star power. Scruffy, sexy Mercury Lounge is about the size of a Midwestern basement, with floors three times as sticky, but it’s the best spot in the Lower East Side to accommodate small- to mid-level rock bands and the Penny Lanes who are loving them first; practically every three-chord marquee name on Ticketmaster, from the Strokes to the New Pornographers, tread these boards in their ascent. And they’ll come back for secret shows fairly often; watch this space, and befriend the bouncers.
