Underground is a live map of who’s playing in New York tonight — every genre, every borough that matters, from a basement piano trio in the Village to a no-phones floor in Ridgewood. It’s made by New Yorkers who actually go out, and it’s curated by Tal Kalman.

Editorial policy

Listings are gathered from venue calendars and the artists themselves. Editor’s Picks are chosen by hand by Tal Kalman — never auto-generated. Promoted venues are always labelled as promoted and are kept visually distinct from anything we recommend on merit.

Accuracy & disclaimers

Listings are aggregated from public sources and can change — always confirm with the venue before you head out. Underground is an independent guide, not affiliated with the venues, artists, or ticketing services shown; all trademarks belong to their owners. We don’t sell tickets — “get tickets” links go to third-party sites. See our Terms and Privacy. To correct or remove a listing, email hello@talkalmanmusic.com.
