In a post-pandemic era of festivals, stadium shows, and high ticket prices, we felt it was important that small venues weren’t left out of the live entertainment conversation. Someone has to give the stage back to the community. There’s a certain quality that intimate shows offer, and if we’re being honest, it’s nice when you can actually see the artist—if you wanted to look at a screen the whole time you could’ve stayed home and done that. Now, we may not have the bells and whistles that the larger venues have, but this is New York City. We have an amazing artist community, and that community has some talented ass friends, some of which you may know, and some of which you definitely want to find out about.
Sound Stage @ wild project is a new series in New York City presenting eight intimate performances between July & August. The inaugural 2022 lineup features comedians, poets and music artists from around the country, and we are ecstatic to have Brooklyn-based artist Cyrus Aaron as our first curator-in-residence.
