Jeff Garlin: Best Seat in the House — Book Talk & Signing

Located in the heart of Greenwich Village since 1981, the Blue Note Jazz Club is a world-renowned cultural landmark that helped redefine the New York City music scene. Founded by Danny Bensusan, the venue moved live performances out of traditional basements and into an upscale, street-level setting. The room is celebrated for its intimate, seated atmosphere and iconic blue neon sign, offering fans a close-up experience with legendary artists in a space often described as a "temple of jazz." While primarily a music venue, the Blue Note has become a prestigious destination for selective, high-profile comedy events. It served as the intimate backdrop for Jerrod Carmichael’s acclaimed HBO special *Rothaniel* and has been chosen by John Mulaney for his multi-venue "Mulaney Takes Manhattan" residency. Known for hosting unique, slow-burning performances, the club provides a sophisticated and warm environment where the worlds of jazz and stand-up comedy frequently intersect.
