Grouper_large

The name sounds slightly like the title of a robot porn DVD, but tonight's event is actually an extremely classy option for a Valentine's Day date. Poisson Rouge's lovely cabaret-style room is really the perfect place for dinner and a concert. Tonight's musical lineup is curated by Ghostly International and Wordless Music, making for a fascinating intersection between elegant and experimental: Ghostly's gorgeously ambient electronic artists Lusine and the Sight Below share the bill with pianist Michael Brofman and Liz Harris' dreamy guitar-and-vocal Grouper project. Meanwhile, guests dine on a three-course menu designed by LPR's in-house chef. If that's not romantic, we don't know what is.
