Sam Smith is in the midst of a multi-month residency here in New York City and we were fortunate enough to experience a magical evening with the talented vocalist at Warsaw. While traditionally a venue for hard-hitting genres like punk or metal, Warsaw in Greenpoint opened its doors to crooner Sam Smith and their large musical accompaniment in October and so far, it’s been a smash success. Where mosh pits usually prevail, one could hear a pin drop between notes as Smith serenaded the crowd with their gut-wrenchingly beautiful performance of a catalog not only spanning decades, but every spectrum of the human experience from love to loss to lust. Just when we thought we’d fully experienced the breadth of Smith’s talent, they spun up a few covers that dealt the final emotional blow. There was not a dry eye in the house for the “Book of Love” cover by The Magnetic Fields.

What we love most about Smith is that in their music, there is something for everyone, and that was reflected in the sold-out crowd we experienced at Warsaw. From children sitting on parents’ shoulders to elders embracing in the VIP seats, there was enough love in the room that evening to light up the whole city. Smith recognized the intimacy of the room, saying:

“I have been touring so much, since the age of 21. I went from playing in venues of this size to playing in arenas in one year. I stayed in those arenas for nearly 10 years,and it was a really amazing experience, and I love singing in those rooms, but my favorite shows, and the ones that changed me as an artist, were the gigs that were shared in rooms like this, that are built for music.”

While we attended one of the first nights of the residency at Warsaw, there are still plenty of opportunities to catch Sam Smith and their wonderful accompaniment. You can find dates for the remaining shows below!

Upcoming dates are November 19, 21, 22, 26, 28, and 29, and December 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, and 13.
