Some additional music happenings seen this past week:
Violinist/composer Tom Swafford: the best thing that ever happened to Park Slope's rush hour. 1/21/10
Nate Schweber (of the New Heathens) performing solo at Banjo Jim's: a great folk/roots bar on Ave. C, 1/22/10 
Lady Blanche at Banjo Jim's - cute and funny
Ethan Lipton & His Orchestra singing wryly funny songs like "Bossy Man" and "Old People Don't Whisper" Barbes, 1/23/10
Logan Richardson & SHIFT playing hard bop at Fat Cat Billiards on Christopher St., 1/23/10
(This place, filled with pool and ping pong tables, caters to the NYU crowd, but the live jazz makes it feel like something out of a Beat novel.)
