Staycation

4 upcoming performances in New York

“Staycation” at Brooklyn Paramount frames the idea of a vacation without departure as a working New York condition: time off measured in subway stops and day-trip distances. Siblings Clyde and Gracie Lawrence lead their eight-piece band through Hip-Hop/R&B‑leaning pop-soul built on close vocal exchange and tight rhythm. The program also lists Lawrence Henry Gowan, a Canadian singer-keyboardist known for his long association with Styx, adding a second, contrasting “Lawrence” to the night. In a city that often treats leisure as another kind of scheduling, the title lands as a quiet cultural comment.
