Sunset Rubdown at Irving Plaza

Why would a Canadian band be a perfect fit to play at an NYC venue like the Irving Plaza? Although Sunset Rubdown and frontman Spencer Krug have had a ton of success, they still give off that small-town band vibe. These types of bands feel like fish to water at the Irving Plaza. It’s one of the most important venues in NYC, but it’s one where artists can almost go back to their roots. The stage is right next to the crowd; there’s usually a ton of interaction between the performers and the audience. That’s something that certain bands like Sunset Rubdown can thrive with. Spencer Krug’s going to take to the keys and the mic on Sunday, October 27th, just like he would at an old town bar in Montreal. Before you even know it, everyone’s gonna be singing along to “The Mending of the Gown.”

Choose who you want to be in the crowd with wisely! To be able to get up close to the stage and interact with the band, which is certainly a staple of the Irving Plaza you have to get here early. Doors open at 7 pm for this show. It’s a Sunday, so there may not be too many excuses for those who are getting here late. The earlier you get here, the better the chance to find a spot near the stage in the standing-room area. Of course, you could choose to be in one of the VIP spots within the Irving Plaza on this night as well.

The Loft, which is the elevated area right next to the stage, will be open for this night. There are also tickets available for multiple areas in the back of the theater. It comes down to what type of experience you want to have on Sunday, October 27th. Rubdown is known for being down-to-earth cool cats. With that type of band, you can feel comfortable being close to the stage. Knowing their past, this might be the last chance to catch them live in NYC. There are no guarantees that they’ll continue on tour beyond this year. Click the get tickets button today and head to the Irving Plaza on October 27th.
