Power-pop sensation Matthew Sweet and Bangles vocalist Susanna Hoffs, otherwise known as “Sid n’ Susie,” will be performing at City Winery on November 10 and 11 at 9 PM. The duo is touring in support of their newest project, which was released on July 21 on Shout! Factory. Under The Covers Vol. 2, a delightful collection that features 16 of the duo’s favorite tunes from the 1970’s, is the much-anticipated follow up to their highly-praised 60’s compilation Under The Covers Vol. 1, released in 2006.

Matthew and Susanna have long performed at each other’s shows, and collaborated with comedian Mike Myers as members of Austin Powers’ on-screen band Ming Tea in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery and Austin Powers in Goldmember before collaborating on Under The Covers Vol. 1. Matthew and Susanna will have a number of tour dates to support their new release, which includes songs by The Grateful Dead, Fleetwood Mac, Derek & The Dominoes, Carly Simon, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, John Lennon, Rod Stewart and George Harrison. Guest stars on Under The Covers Vol. 2 include Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac, Steve Howe of Yes and Dhani Harrison, son of George.

City Winery interior

City Winery is the brainchild of Michael Dorf, founder of the iconic Knitting Factory, who wanted to create a space in Manhattan where he could combine his shared passions for wine and music. The core target audience of City Winery—urban wine enthusiasts who desire the experience of making their own wine, but who are not going to leave their comfortable Manhattan lifestyle to decamp to a vineyard—immediately became clear. But Michael wanted to create more than just a custom crush facility. Beyond making wine, Michael also wanted to focus on the enjoyment and satisfaction that comes from sharing wine with friends, and to capture the unique social bond that occurs when communities of like-minded people gather over a bottle of quality Cabernet, while dining on a freshly-prepared meal and listening to their favorite artists perform. That is what City Winery is about: community, creativity and culture. It’s a vibrant, interactive space in New York where folks can not only make wine, but also meet friends new and old while indulging their passion for quality food, music, art and life.
