Every year that tragically hip (used to be Downtown) now-Midtown magazine, Paper, gives us a list of all the beautiful people. Some are famous, most you've never heard of, all of them are pretty on the inside (and/or outside!) and most importantly - they're all doing something cooler than you. Let's take a look at some of this years BPs: • Hayes Peebles is in there, the 14-year old wunderkind that played our last Movable......

Next week we'll be posting videos from our Austin show (as well as some other SXSW goodies), and for now - here are two of the performances from our last Movable Hype show (as always, shot for us by Autopilot).

Hayes Peebles is a 14 year old New York singer/songwriter. Along with his guitar, he carries with him the perfect amount of experience and innocence - giving his listeners a little of both through his songs. This week he'll be opening up our 11th Movable Hype show, give a listen: Gone Grey.mp3 When and why did you start writing songs? I started writing songs December 2005. I started writing original pieces because I had played......

As we've been mentioning, Movable Hype 11.0 is coming up fast, and the show will also be our 4th Birthday Party! We've introduced you to the host, and two of the bands, and now we have the rest of the lineup for you. The World Without Magic caught our attention pretty recently, and after seeing their live show we wanted to see them again and again. They'll be closing the night out, which is perfect......

Hayes Peebles is a solo artist. We admit that calling a young singer-songwriter the next Conor Oberst is about as cliche as calling Conor Oberst the next Bob Dylan, but we can't deny that we hear a lot of those qualities in Hayes. Songs about sitting on the steps of Union Square, lonely subway rides and not getting into shows because you're too young. These are real songs by a real New Yorker, and......

Stop on by anytime and say hi! Friday: Hayes Peebles......

Starting this afternoon and going strong through the weekend, every music club in the city is going to be jam packed with hours upon hours of the hottest up and coming bands from all over the world. Seeing that we'd expect your regular Gothamist reader won't be equipped with a $500 badge, we decided to highlight some of the standout free events this week. While you will......

THEATER: Joe's Pub hosts SpeakEasy, a theatrical "event" written by Neil LaBute, Edwin Sanchez, Theresa Rebeck and many others. The performance will happen throughout the Joe's Pub space, "surrounding the spectator with the bizarre, the comic, the seductive, and the sublime. Neo-Vaudeville meets social satire in this giant play with environmental staging, original music, and compelling new writing." It's the launch of The Fire Dept. a new theater company; this show features Janeane Garafalo and......
