    About This Event

    Hiss Golden Messenger, the long-running folk and country project led by Durham songwriter MC Taylor, plays Irving Plaza on the I’m People Tour. Taylor’s songs depend on plainspoken narratives and steady, groove-minded arrangements delivered by an individual-led ensemble, and the tour places that clarity-focused approach in a room usually associated with rock lineups.

    About I'm People Tour

    The I’m People Tour comes to Irving Plaza for a live set rooted in country songwriting, with Hiss Golden Messenger among the featured performers. The show centers on voice, rhythm, and narrative, using plain language to track faith, labor, and everyday American movement. Irving Plaza’s long history of hosting touring bands places this stop in a New York tradition of club rooms where genre lines get tested in public. The material’s strength is its attention to ordinary detail, delivered without ornament.
