Thank You LUNGevity!

We just wanted to take a moment to thank Connie Ruta and Diana Fusco of the LUNGevity Foundation for allowing us to be a part of their first ever New York Hope Gala on November 3rd. We had a wonderful time and got the crowd going with some great dance music from the Motown Era to today. Everyone was in high spirits and the foundation raised awareness as well as money to help fund the research that brings us closer to finding a cure for lung cancer!

Nite-Time to Perform at the First Annual LUNGevity Hope Gala!

When: November 3, 2011

Where: Jumeirah Essex House,  NYC

Why: To raise money and awareness to help fight lung cancer!

Yves and I and the rest of Nite-Time are excited to announce that we will be participating in the first annual Hope Gala to benefit the LUNGevity foundation. LUNGevity was “founded by seven Chicago area lung cancer survivors in November of 2000 to increase funding for lung cancer research.” Their vision is of “a world where no one dies of lung cancer” and we are thrilled to be able to do our small part to help them get one step closer to realizing that vision.

The gala will take place on November 3rd at the beautiful and iconic Essex House on Central Park South in NYC. There will be a cocktail reception at 6:30pm, followed by dinner and dancing at 7:30pm. Additional entertainment will be provided by Chrissy Bridgeman from Painted Rhythm Dance Company.

This cause is near and dear to our hearts. Both Yves and I have lost loved ones to this devastating disease, which is incredibly hard to detect in it’s early stages and therefore claims more lives in the U.S. per year than any other type of cancer. Lung cancer, contrary to popular belief, can afflict anyone regardless of gender, ethnicity or a history of smoking. For more information on lung cancer, check out LUNGevity’s page about the disease here.

We’ll have pics and a full report on the event in the coming weeks…

Nite-Time LIVE at the P&G in NYC!! July 29th

When: Friday, July 29th – 6-8pm

Where: The P&G Bar on the upper west side of NYC

Why: Why NOT?

Here it is, another rare opportunity to catch Nite-Time live and in person without having to get hitched or bar mitzed!

Seriously though, we had a great time the last time we played the P&G and you’ve all been asking when you can see us play live and so… we hooked it up. We’ll be doing our usual thing, that is jammin’ out with everyone’s favorite party music from the ’60s to today. Come on down for some after work, pre-weekend happy juice and we’ll provide the tunes and as always at the P&G… no cover!

Nite-Time Appears at PCDI’s Spring Sensations for the Fourth Year in a Row!

May 7, 2011

The Westin at Princeton Forrestal Village, Princeton, NJ

This year we at Nite-Time had the honor of performing for the good people at  The Princeton Child Development Institute, for the fourth year in a row. PCDI is “the first community-based program in the state (of NJ) that was specifically designed to provide intervention for children with autism.” Their mission is noble, they exist to “meet the education and treatment needs of children with autism, and to facilitate professional training and research on autism intervention” and they do an amazing job.

The 2011 Spring Sensations Gala was a wonderful event that raised spirits and funds for PCDI.  The people who work with PCDI give so much of themselves for this amazing cause. They work hard all year to raise money and awareness, so this event is definitely a party with a purpose. After the silent and live auctions were concluded, Nite-Time had the dance floor packed all night. This year’s musical highlights included a trip through the decades starting with hits from the Motown era and culminating in a rousing medley of today’s instant classics that got all ages up and moving.

We’d like to thank everyone at The Princeton Child Development Institute for having us back and for including us in such a wonderful event, we hope to see you again next year!

NEW! NiteTimeNYC Channel on YouTube!

Hello Again from Nite-Time!

Many of you have asked where, when or how you can get to see Nite-Time live. Since we mostly perform at private events this can be difficult sometimes. We’ve begun doing some public performances recently and they’ve been a lot of fun, but there are still a lot of people that haven’t been able to make it out. So, by popular demand, I am happy to announce the launch of our very own YouTube channel. “It’s about time!” you may say, and you would be right. We’ll be collecting video to post as often as possible so that you can experience Nite-Time live without leaving your laptop, or iPhone – although we’d love to see you out sometime!

Nite-Time Live at the P&G in NYC!

Yves has been feverishly working on editing and uploading video from some of our recent performances, we’ll be adding more today and all this week, so keep checking back!

Also, if any of you have video from past events that you’d like to share, email Yves or me and we’ll post it on the YouTube channel.

As always, thanks for your love and support. We’ve got some more public shows coming up, we’ll keep you posted. Until then, here’s to another great party season! We’ll be kicking it off this weekend in Princeton!

The 2011 GCCA Beaux Arts Ball was a Huge Success!

Date: April 2, 2011

Location: Coppertree Restaurant, Hunter, NY

Honorees: Robert Manno & Magdalena Golczewski

This year we at Nite-Time – New York City’s Premier Party Band! had the pleasure of rocking out with the Greene County Council on the Arts and all of their supporters for the fourth time at the 23rd annual Beaux Arts Ball. Each year the ball is held at the beautiful Coppertree Restaurant at the foot of Hunter Mountain in Hunter, NY. This year’s ball was on April 2nd and it was truly a night to remember!

This year the GCCA which “provides information and services to artists, arts organizations, cultural and educational institutions, civic groups, community agencies and the general public” honored the founders of the Windham Chamber Music Festival, Robert Manno and Magdalena Golczewski. Robert and Magdalena, like Yves and me, are a married couple who have spent their lives working in music. Robert and Magdalena have been bringing classical music to Windham since 1997 and have done a tremendous amount to enrich the mountain community of Windham and the surrounding areas.

Robert and Magdalena Receive honors at the 2011 GCCA Ball!

After Lex Grey got things going during the cocktail and silent auction hour with her bawdy cabaret (which is always a good time), we ramped things up throughout the night with hits from the 60′s to today. Like we always do, we had everybody up and dancing and it was a good crowd filled with some pretty awesome dancers.

We love that we get the chance to lend a hand and help out this very worthy cause each year. Funding for arts in our communities is getting harder and harder to come by. We’d like to thank Kay Stamer, David Slutzky, the fine folks at the GCCA and all local arts councils for doing all that they do to keep arts alive in our communities.

If you didn’t make it out this time, next year consider joining us for an excellent time with an amazing group of people!

Here are a few pics from this year’s shindig to whet your appetite (I’m not going to lie, a lot of them are of me).

The Empire Room Rocked!

Thanks to everyone who came out to The Empire Room in NYC on Saturday. It was our first time there, and hopefully it won’t be our last. The place is beautiful and we all had a great time playing there. If you weren’t able to make it out, we will of course keep you posted on the next one, but you should definitely stop by The Empire Room for a drink if you get a chance. The atmosphere is great, the staff was really cool and the vibes are just overall good in there.

We started out the night with some easy soul and Motown hits that really fit in with the tone of the venue, and then we ramped it up to some current hits and classic rock. There’s not usually a dance floor at The Empire Room, but there was on Saturday night! Thanks to Dave Cervini and the New York Social Network for throwing such a rockin’ event and for having us there to help with the rockin’! Hopefully we raised some money for a good cause and gained some new Nite-Time fans. Until next time…

Nite-Time at The Empire Room: March 26th, 7:30pm

Hey Y’all,

Here it is, another chance to catch Nite-Time live in NYC without throwing a giant bash of your own!

• When: Saturday, March 26th: 7:30p – 9:30p
• RSVP: info@nite-time.com for guest list status.
• Why:

Our friends at the New York Social Network have decided to throw a Spring Break Party to welcome in the most anticipated spring in recent memory, and with the current backslide into winter we’ve been experiencing we could sure use it!

We’ve rocked the past several years’ holiday bash with these folks and they can get down!

There will be drink specials, appetizers and a DJ spinning before and after our set. The room is a really cool Art Deco space. We have a limited guest list, so RSVP by Friday to get in on our dime.

If you decide to drop in last minute:
Tickets are $15 at the door if you mention that you are there to see Nite-Time!

Hope to see you there!

Thanks For Making Friday Night’s Show a Success!

Just a quick note to thank everyone that came out on Friday for helping to make our first public show a huge success! We had a great turn out and the band sounded amazing. Thanks to the P&G for great sound and a fun laid back atmosphere. If you missed the show, fear not, we’re working on getting something together for March, too. We will let you know as soon as we have a date. In the meantime, our good friend Leo Sorel took some audio/video and still shots of the band, which we’ll be posting soon. We’re in great hands there, Leo is an incredibly talented and accomplished photographer, you should check out his site!

Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day! Yves and I will be taking the rest of today off to love things…
