    About This Event

    Hear Me Out, hosted by Nick Smith, brings a mixed bill to Union Hall featuring Bridget, Foley, Britt, Erik, Jaboukie, James, Liza, Migs, Rachel, Tom and Treyger. Bridget — a founding member of Lake Street Dive and a John Lennon Songwriting Contest winner — appears alongside Britt’s band‑forward guitar work, Erik’s pop‑rock vocal approach and Foley’s regular Union Hall sets, a lineup that reflects the room’s indie rock/pop evenings.

    About Hear Me Out

    Hear Me Out brings a live rock/pop set to Union Hall, staged with the intimacy of a Brooklyn room that has long blurred the line between club show and community hangout. Hosted by Nick Smith, the night features performers including Liza Treyger, Jaboukie, and Young-, shaping the set through voice, timing, and presence as much as through songs. In a city where genre boundaries are routinely tested, the format points to a familiar New York habit: turning a bill into a conversation. The result is less spectacle than a snapshot of the current scene in motion.
