Mike Greco

Mike Greco official site | Mike Greco on Facebook | Mike Greco on Twitter | Mike Greco on Instagram | Mike Greco on YouTube

Mike Greco is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who started his professional career as a session musician in New York City. Inspired by the golden age of music, his unique sound ranges from 1960’s rock and soul to 1980’s new wave/disco injected with a modern pop twist. Greco’s 2016 debut EP No Rules About It, produced by Matt Katz-Bohen of Blondie is an eclectic mix of Disco and Rock & Roll with a New York City attitude. Influential sounds reminiscent of Chic, Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney echo throughout, perfectly melding with Greco’s nu-retro style. The classically clever concoction of passionate lyrics, soaring melodies and upbeat grooves create an exciting energy and fresh sound in today’s underground music scene!

She is debuting her original blues inspired songs off of her latest EP “Ratchet Punk” with guitarist Brian Jay (Pimps of Joytime) & drummer Aaron Johnston (Brazilian Girls).

The Worst Humans

The Worst Humans on Instagram | The Worst Humans on Soundcloud

The Worst Humans, a three-piece jazz-grunge-punk outfit from Brooklyn, found their footing in the underground rock scene, taking refuge in the basement of the Berlin social club on Avenue A. Members of the group have performed on “The Today Show,” “Good Morning, America” alongside Elle King, have shared tours with The Fray, James Blunt, American Authors and more, but can still be found skulking around the Lower East Side in Manhattan most nights. Pulling their sound from ‘90s groups and Nina Simone, the eclectic “jazz-punks” are slowly becoming a notable live show in the city and are preparing to take their performance across the pond. They are not who you think they are and do not toil in the boundaries of popular music or popular art but plan on making a sound much larger than they are.

Michael T. (DJ set)

Legendary DJ, event producer, and promoter Michael T needs no introduction to those who know and love NYC nightlife. Michael has been behind the production of some of New York’s most spectacular parties, including “Motherfucker”, “Rated X”, and the currently running Oh! You Pretty Things. Michael currently performs live with his band, The Vanities, and can be regularly heard DJing at many of New York City’s best Rock parties.
