  • Arts for Art is excited to bring you Studio RIVBEA REVISITED, at 24 Bond Street in NYC, the site of Sam River’s loft.

    Released in the late 70s, the five-volume compilation LPs “Wildflowers,” captured a few of the better-known bands that played at the iconic Studio Rivbea in the 1970s, but Rivbea was also where many legends of today got their start including William Parker, Cooper-Moore (aka Gene Ashton), William Hooker, David S. Ware and David Murray. Studio RIVBEA REVISITED is a concert series starting Wednesday, January 4th, that features musicians who played Rivbea back in the 1970s and others who certainly would be playing there now, if Studio Rivbea still existed.
