Book Discussion | This Must Be The Place by Jesse Rifkin

Tuesday, February 27, 2024, 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm

Free

Jesse Rifkin will discuss his book on the past 60 years of NYC's music history and the spaces and communities where it thrived.
 
How have real estate, gentrification, and community shaped New York City's music scene?

New York City has been a hotbed of musical innovation for generations, and its neighborhoods have built and nurtured vibrant music scenes ranging from folk to hip hop. Relying on hundreds of interviews and firsthand accounts, Jesse Rifkin's This Must Be The Place (Hanover Square Press, 2023) examines the past sixty years of NYC's music history and the spaces where it thrived. Rifkin dismisses the notion of a singular "golden age" for New York's musical artists and presents it as a continuum evolving with the shifting fortunes of our city and deeply tied to the availability of affordable venues and other spaces for artists to connect and collaborate.
