Club Quarters Budget Hotel NYC Black Uhuru SONY Hall

Staying at Club Quarters Grand Central for the Black Uhuru show at Sony Hall was the perfect choice—not just for the concert but for the unforgettable experience of watching them record live. The hotel’s central location made it easy to get to the venue, where the legendary reggae band delivered a powerful, high-energy performance in Sony Hall’s intimate setting. But the real highlight came earlier in the day when we had the rare chance to see Black Uhuru in the studio, fine-tuning tracks with the same raw energy they bring to the stage. After the show, retreating to the hotel’s modern, comfortable rooms with skyline views was the ideal way to wind down from an epic night of reggae and NYC vibes.
