The Living Room, Music venue in Lower East Side, Manhattan, US
The Living Room featured four to five singer-songwriters each night, operating with a one-drink minimum policy and suggested donations for performers.
Founded in 1988 by Steve Rosenthal and Jennifer Gilson, the venue started in a former fried chicken restaurant before relocating to Ludlow Street in 2003.
The venue provided a platform for emerging artists in folk, indie rock, and alternative country genres, with performers including Norah Jones and Lana Del Rey.
The venue maintained a capacity of 180 people and included an additional performance space called Googies Lounge on the upper level.
The Living Room released a commemorative CD in 2002 titled 'The Living Room - Live in NYC - Vol.1' featuring performances from various artists.
