Gospel Music

Harlem Sundays

In every New York city church with music I've explored, I've found those qualities at churches in Harlem. Gospel music moves me like few other things can.

Sugar Bar

Soul, R&B, jazz bar

"Sugar Bar" in New York City is a club that features soul, R&B and jazz. It's small and busy, and I like the vibes. Great food, too, esp. the chicken.
