"This place is awesome !! Unmatched legendary local venue to host your events at, everything is professionally recorded. Also they have a jam every week on Tuesdays thats awesome, great place to network all the talent in the area hangs here. Highly recommend checking out their events !"

"Truly a special place. Each and every member of their team is kind, caring, and passionate. After my first visit, I immediately felt a sense of belonging and I've been coming back with my friends ever since. FirstLive books a range of performers, but their mission to elevate those artists who are on their way up invites real community. You'll likely get a chance to personally thank the musicians and mix with others artists if that's your thing. If that isn't, just a good vibe all around regardless. Easy to talk to strangers at a place like this and make a meaningful connection. If you're going into the soundroom to watch the performances up close, don't forget your earplugs! FirstLive is a gem in Bushwick! Will always be grateful I ventured out that very first time. 🙏🏾"

"My band and I had a wonderful time playing FirstLive! Easily one of the most unique venues I've ever been to or played. Rachel and the rest of the staff are so kind and passionate about what they do. Do not sleep on this place!"

"Came here for one of the jam nights that was hyped as this amazing community thing, but it felt more like a private clubhouse. Drinks are priced like a fancy cocktail bar, but the place is hot, cramped, and has only one bathroom. Staff looked bored, bartenders were on their phones, and when you finally order, you’re met with attitude. The management seems more concerned with looking important than creating a welcoming atmosphere. It’s ambitious on the surface, but in practice it feels unorganized and out of touch. You can tell the people running it want it to be legendary, but it just comes across as awkward and self-indulgent. Never again."

"Amazing venue in Brooklyn, the staff are great, stage equipment and audio. Visual tech is state of the art. Very cool concept of being a music venue that streams and has live shows."
