What our guests are saying:
"Truly authentic experience. It was such fun to be hosted in this wonderful house and have an up close experience with a live band. Fabulous musicians and I am sure you will be surprised at several turns. René is a very kind guy and will welcome you as if you were a houseguest. If you see a date for this event and your thinking about it; go for it. It may ended up being one of your Top5 during your trip."

"What an absolutely charming hidden gem! I was fortunate to score some tickets to the Tuesday is Bluesday event at the Flophouse, on our local Buy Nothing Group with thanks to owner / musician Rene. While at the venue I was invited to peak upstairs and see one of the rooms, which is delightfully decorated and huge, particularly for NYC standards. The bathroom is a place you want to get lost in and I love the clawfoot tub. The details all throughout the house are curated to the highest aesthetic, elegant and thoughtful.
The music was awesome - amazing, original music by Rene in collaboration with his band members, each a fantastic musician. Don't miss one of these nights! It's a rare, truly Harlem experience. I left with a handful of new friends and a load of inspiration!
Thank you Rene!"

This was the first time to a Blues Rock Jam session. The band was amazing! The atmosphere was very intimate, we had the feeling the performance was just for us. This was a great experience

Un concierto totalmente íntimo. Éramos tan solo 8 personas! Nos invitaron con un trago a elección y nos sentamos en el sillón a disfrutar del show de Rene y sus músicos! Muy buena onda de todos ellos! Muy recomendable para quienes gusten de una velada diferente y disfruten de la buena música en vivo.

This "Live Rock @ The Harlem Flophouse" was one of the most entertaining music events I have ever attended! This band flows with such crispness you accomplish after numerous years of practice. The atmosphere was cozy. I was thoroughly impressed with this Brownstone. The interior has been restored to its original state (not stripped and modernized, such a crime) . The acoustics of the parlor was ideal for this band. This event is like an NYC hidden treasure. Please don't let that be! I wish more people to experience the greatness of this event. I met an awesome Australian family at this event and they were blown away........If you are local, do yourself a favor, bring a couple friends....You won't be disappointed!

Even after a month, I still could remember how amazing the show it was. Soaring drums, gorgeous fireworks dazzling in my mind, distant calls, awakening my body, from the tips of my hair to the ends of my toes, none of which speaks of the thrill of awakening. Rene's passion for musical storytelling will bring this iconic love story to life in ways I have never experienced. Moreover, there was an excitement in his voice that everyone who had cared for, which I fell in love with. Renes voice has an enticing charisma that captures the listeners attention and compels them to follow the musicality of his speech. In this sense, Rene recalls the Sirens of Greek myth, who use their enchanting voices to lure sailors into shipwrecks. Like the Sirens, René's voice issues a vague but alluring promise of gay, exciting things to come. Michael and sterling are two of the most exciting theatre artists. Their performance is full of powerful impact and hormones, so that I have been enthralled and long-awaited. "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." The Great Gatsby If I got a chance, I will come back for Rene again.
