Sunny's Bar

Tone's Bluegrass Jam
Every Saturday, owner Tone Johansen hosts a bluegrass jam in the bar's back room that has been running for more than twenty years. Musicians of all levels form a circle and trade tunes while a crowd packs in around them — it is regularly cited among the best places to hear bluegrass in New York City.
