The National Underground

The National Underground is a music venue located at 159 East Houston Street between Allen and Eldridge Street with a stage area and seating arrangement designed for performances. The space offers full bar service and maintains dimensions suitable for hosting live music acts.

The venue was established in 2007 by brothers Joey and Gavin DeGraw as a space for musicians to perform and connect with each other. Its creation reflected a commitment to supporting the live music community in Lower Manhattan.

The venue maintains high standards for musical performances, hosting notable artists including Joss Stone, Chris Barron, and The Shells in its intimate setting.
