LONG ISLAND’S BEST LIVE MUSIC VENUES

LIMO SERVICE AND A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC

Long Island is quickly becoming one of the hottest spots in the country if you’re looking for artistic flair. From the museums and streets artists to the musical culture of the city there are plenty of reasons to visit Long Island and experience for yourself what all the buzz is about.

Planning the perfect night out in a place as vibrant as Long Island requires a little bit of research and perhaps a reservation or two in advance. But when your big night arrives, you’ll have plenty to entertain and delight you at one of our favorite Long Island music venues.

Here is our recipe for the perfect night out in New York’s beautiful Long Island.

WHERE TO BEGIN

The first step to the perfect night out is to book your limousine early. Limo service is the key to a truly enjoyable night, not only because it relieves you of the responsibilities of driving, but it’s also a much safer way to get from place to place when you’ve had a couple of drinks. Furthermore, your Chauffeur will be an absolute asset, especially if you don’t know much about Long Island. He’ll advise you on restaurants, be able to find your best route, and will have you to your show with plenty of time to spare.

LONG ISLAND’S BEST VENUES

1) THE PARAMOUNT

This Huntington New York hotspot is one of the best live music venues in the area for a couple reasons. Not only does it showcase the best bands, but it offers the electric atmosphere that you need to really hear and experience a band’s live presence. From Led Zeppelin cover bands to some of today’s hottest independent and alternative rock stars, the Paramount has plenty to offer your perfect night out in Long Island.

2) THE VELVET LOUNGE

Have your Chauffeur drive you out to this location if you’re looking for a hub for independent artists, talented poets, and spoken word events that will leave you feeling inspired and maybe even a little artistic yourself. The Velvet Lounge’s location in East Setauket means you’ll get some time alone with your significant other during the drive and get to see some truly beautiful New York country while you’re at it. The Lounge holds special events and shows every weekend so check their online schedule to keep up with which shows you’re interested in.

3) THE STEPHEN TALKHOUSE

The Stephen Talkhouse has the distinct honor of having been the stage for several of rock n’ roll’s biggest names during their heydays. Paul Simon, The Coasters, and Bo Diddley have all played sets at the Talkhouse, and to this day, the standard of booking solid acts to grace their stage remains at the Talkhouse, hands down one of Long Island’s most prestigious venues. Described as “hip, wild, but unpretentious,” the Talkhouse is the place to go on your night out if you want some serious musical history and a great environment.

4) BRICKHOUSE BREWERY

This Patchogue, New York venue doubles as a fantastic brewery and restaurant, so even if you don’t visit solely for the music, you’ll have delicious brews and food to keep you occupied. The Brewhouse’s nightly entertainment includes local talents and a showcase of some of the best independent artists in the New York area. The beer list and menu are also enviable, which make this location a perfect spot for a relaxed night out on Long Island.

Exploring Long Island for an incredible night out is made better with the services of a limo service and a professional Chauffeur; not only will your commutes to restaurants and the incredible venue of your choice be easy and stress-free, but you’ll have a local expert driving you, making sure you get the most out of your night, no matter where you choose to go.
