Catch Great Live Music in NYC This Weekend

Slash with Guns N' Roses at MetLife Stadium in 2021; he returns to NYC this weekend with Miles Kennedy & the Conspirators

Last week's live performances in New York were outstanding, and the weekend promises to be even better. Tyler, the Creator, Slash, Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators, Rex Orange County, Oliver Tree,  St. Paul and the Broken Bones, the Tallest Man on Earth, Animal Collective, Todd Rundgren, Christopher Cross, Badfinger feat. Joey Molland, the Chieftains, Kali Uchis, Vince Staples, Gary Numan, and Joshua Radin are among the marquee touring acts coming to New York City this weekend. Meanwhile, smaller venues are presenting dozens of equally-good but lesser-known musicians for those who are willing to discover new musical treasures. Here is a look back at the past week in photographs alongside listings of some of the coming weekend's highlights.
