Music Performance: Freedy Johnston

For all of you looking for a music fix this weekend, be sure to check out the Union Hall bar at 702 Union Street, just off of Fifth Avenue, Friday June 19th, for a live performance by Freedy Johnston with Rebecca Pronsky. The last time Johnston performed on the avenue was last year at Southpaw, and he promises this show will be equally as memorable, according to the Brooklyn Paper.

According to his website, Johnston is releasing a new album this fall, entitled Rain in the City , being distributed by BarNone Records. If you want a sample of some of Johnston's music, check out his Myspace page, where you can hear a few tracks off the new album.

The show starts at 8PM, with tickets running $15, but you can get started earlier, as the bar opens around 4 o'clock for all of you looking to get the weekend started a little early in preparation for the official start of summer. This is a great way to celebrate.

For more information, visit the Union Hall website, or contact them in person.
