CBGB is more than a name—it's a cornerstone of American rock history. Founded in 1973 by Hilly Kristal at 315 Bowery, CBGB helped launch the careers of iconic acts like the Ramones, Patti Smith Group, Talking Heads, Blondie, and Television, redefining the sound of punk and later influencing the broader new wave movement. Though the original venue closed in 2006 due to a lease dispute, the CBGB brand lives on through festivals and branded events, continuing to bring the energy of New York’s early punk scene to fans around the world. This performer page covers CBGB’s legacy, key discography highlights, and upcoming tour information so you can secure your seats with confidence.
