Yo La Tengo
1 events · 1 upcoming
Yo La Tengo formed in Hoboken, New Jersey in 1984 around the married pair of Ira Kaplan and Georgia Hubley, with James McNew joining on bass in 1992 to complete the long-running lineup. Across albums such as I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One and And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out, the trio moves freely between feedback-drenched guitar workouts and hushed, melodic songwriting. Their annual multi-night Hanukkah benefit residency, built on surprise guests and comedians, has become a New York institution.

Yo La Tengo return to the Bowery Ballroom for eight consecutive nights of their long-running Hanukkah benefit residency, opening December 4 and closing December 11, 2026. Each evening pairs a surprise comedian and a surprise musical guest with a Yo La Tengo set that repeats no song across the run, usually ending in an all-covers encore. Proceeds go to charity, and tickets went on sale July 24.
