  • Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: the Case of the Bowery Presents
    Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: The Case of The Bowery Presents Fabian Holt University of Roskilde [email protected] Abstract This article offers a new analytical perspective on the relation between rock clubs and gentrification to illuminate broader changes in urbanism and cultural production in New York City. Although gentrification is central to understanding how the urban condition has changed since the 1960s, the long-term implications for popular music and its evolution within new urban populations and cultural industries have received relatively little scholarly attention. Gentrification has often been dismissed as an outside threat to music scenes. This article, in contrast, argues that gentrification needs to be understood as a broader social, economic, and cultural process in which popular music cultures have changed. The argument is developed through a case study of The Bowery Presents, a now dominant concert promoter and venue operator with offices on the Lower East Side. Based on fieldwork conducted over a three-year period and on urban sociological macro-level analysis, this article develops an analytical narrative to account for the evolution of the contemporary concert culture in the mid-size venues of The Bowery Presents on the Lower East Side and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, as a particular instance of more general dynamics of culture and commerce in contemporary cities. The narrative opens up new perspectives for theorizing live music and popular culture within processes of urban social change. The article begins by reviewing conventional approaches to rock music clubs in popular music studies and urban sociology. These approaches are further clarified through the mapping of a deep structure in how music scenes have framed the relationship between clubs and gentrification discursively.

    LOWER EAST SIDE AND CHINATOWN. During the 80s, a lot of alternative and experimental galleries started to open on the Lower East Side. After the 2007 inauguration of the New Museum on Bowery, a wave of art spaces and commercial galleries looking for a cheaper and livelier scene, opened in the area. From there, the art scene kept moving south, taking over sections of East Chinatown. The Lower East Side and Chinatown are both neighborhoods that have historically hosted large concentrations of immigrants, working class families and artists. These three demographic groups have given the area a unique eclecticism and rich ethnic diversity. The Lower East Side is also known for being home to some of the best places in the city to see live music and an endless list of vibrant and exciting bars and restaurants. WE SUGGEST YOU DO THIS TOUR SOMETIME BETWEEN WEDNESDAY AND SUNDAY because most galleries are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
