Grammy Award-winning artist Sara Bareilles, who is leading a movement to help preserve the venue, captures the essence of Rockwood: In an era where live music is dominated by corporate interests, venues like Rockwood - which focus on new and emerging artists - have become increasingly rare. It has also been the site of hundreds of appearances by Grammy, Tony, and American Music Award winners.Īlong the way, Rockwood has become an iconic NYC cultural institution and a foundational part of America's independent music scene. Over the past 18 years, Rockwood has hosted over 75,000 shows on its three stages, helping to launch and develop the careers of thousands of artists. They've launched the Preserve Rockwood campaign to stay open, with a GoFundMe and a series of benefit shows with Sara Bareilles, Chris Thile and Michael Daves, Amy Helm, Elle King, The Lone Bellow, Ingrid Michaelson, and more.
