  • Drom NYC Summer Jazz Series: Live Jazz Returns to the East Village, Beginning July 28th As New York's live music scene comes roaring back to life, East Village venue Drom brings live jazz back to the neighborhood with their new NYC Summer Jazz Series: Nine shows over two separate weeks in July and August, featuring some of the city's most dynamic performers, running from July 28th to August 22nd (Full lineup below). While such storied jazz venues as Tonic and The Stone are long gone from the neighborhood, and other beloved rooms like The Pyramid Club went permanently dark during the pandemic, Drom keeps the flame of live music burning, and celebrates the end of our collective lockdown by going big.
