The Daily Shortlist January 25

Location: Union Square, NYC
Bands: Olafur Arnalds Get Tickets Here
Show time: 8 PM
Venue: The Highline Ballroom
Food: Yama
Drink: 119 Bar
Miscellaneous: Barnes & Noble (Union Square location)

Icelandic sound artist Olafur Arnalds makes music that is more indie-composition than indie-rock but fits nicely in both categories with music that sounds like it could easily be the soundtrack to a film. One of the best Japanese restaurants in the city, Yama, serves up some of the hugest and freshest portions of sushi, while not being as expensive as you think. Close to Irving Plaza, 119 Bar is one dive where you can get cheap drinks, play pool, and hang with friends while not standing out or being bothered when you’re a sweaty mess from dancing after seeing Shadow and Chemist perform, and I mean that in a good way! If you’re bored and early for the show, head over to the four floor Barnes & Noble to look through magazines and get a cup of coffee.
