Folk City was THE club in the New York City music scene back in the day. The owner of Folk City was Mike Porco, and tonight, his grandson, Bob Porco, will present a show in honor of Folk City’s 50th anniversary at The Village Underground, which is in the building where Folk City spent most of its years until it closed in the late 80s, with more than 40 Folk City alumni performing. Details and a video of The Roches talking about the place and singing Face Down at Folk City are over at Now I’ve Heard Everything.
