Live sessions in New York?

Hello folks,

I'm an Englishman in New York for a couple of weeks. I wondered if anyone here could recommend any folk/acoustic sessions I might attend while here?

It seems there are a few "Irish folk" in various Irish pubs, which are possibly the closest to what I'm looking for - though I would appreciate music without a specifically Irish bias if possible.

Suggestions, perhaps from people around the area?

Thanks!

Just back from a two week holiday in the Big Apple, we do not play so were only looking for concert type gigs, we found this link http://www.acousticlive.com/acoustic_live/Listings.html

Hope you can find what you are looking for there

You can get almost anywhere on the Subway and it runs 24 hours.

We went to a house concert on the Upper West Side, a coffee house type folk club in Brooklyn, and one on City Island in the Bronx.

Have you tried the NY Pinewoods Folk Society website? I can't make a blue clicky with my cell phone but the address is www.minstrelrecords.com/fmsny.
