Time Out New York, Concert Preview >>
1. Marianne Faithfull at the Town Hall The ’60s star, more cabaret diva than classic rocker, recently issued a lovely record of cover songs, Easy Come Easy Go. The album features guest spots from an impressive crew: Chelsea all-stars Antony and Rufus Wainwright, grizzled rock survivors Keith Richards and Chan Marshall. Read a preview of Faithfull’s City Winery concert in March here and our awesome 2002 interview with the singer here.
2. Littoral Series at Issue Project Room This series pairs writers with musicians—tonight’s edition features Renaissance man Melvin Van Peebles and outsider-metal duo Nondor Nevai and Mick Barr.
3. Billy Hart Quartet at Village Vanguard Veteran drummer Billy Hart leads a quartet with saxist Mark Turner, pianist Ethan Iverson and bassist Ben Street.
4. Orchestra of Tetouan at Judson Memorial Church A stellar Moroccan orchestra pays a rare visit to New York.
5. U2 at Giants Stadium This band is going to be huge someday. You heard it here first. Read our preview here.
