Water Street Music Hall is one of my favorite venues in town. When it comes to shows, this is the venue I end up at most of the time. I've been going here since I was about eleven years old, and I fell in love with it the minute I walked in.
The venue opened in 1977 as a place called The Warehouse, and went through several name changes before it finally became Water Street Music hall in 1999. There are actually two separate rooms, the hall and the club at Water Street. The club part is a lot smaller than the hall, but shows in both sections are amazing. The hall allows for high energy, bigger shows (such as the Blessthefall show back in August), while the club side allows for more intimate shows. I've seen Teddy Geiger play the club side countless times.
The inside of the venue is really cool as well, with album covers and signed memorabilia covering the walls upstairs and downstairs. There's a balcony with seating upstairs as well. But I think my favorite thing (other than the shows of course) is the piano that's on the club side of the venue:
This piano was one of the first things I noticed at the venue, and it's my favorite piece there to this day.
If you're looking to catch any shows at this venue, they have two more shows this year!
December 6- The Ragbirds (with Teressa Wilcox and Daniel Champagne)- Club side
