The Bowery Presents is a concert promotion and venue management organization that runs multiple venues in New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Maine. Venue capacities range from 250 people to 20,000 people. The organization started with only a small club (The Mercury Lounge) on Manhattan's Lower East Side in 1993 and gradually developed a new market for indie rock concerts for new middle-class populations in Manhattan and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, during the 1990s and 2000s, and in the 2010s increasingly also tourists and a wider area of New Jersey and Brooklyn.〔Holt, F. 2013.

''IASPM@Journal'', special issue on Performance, summer 2013 (open source publication)〕 ==History== The business evolution of The Bowery Presents: * 1993 – The Mercury Lounge (300 capacity club), focus on baby bands * 1997 – Bowery Ballroom (600 capacity club or small mid-size venue), headliner-oriented * 2003 – Webster Hall (1400 capacity mid-size club), headliner-oriented * 2006 – Live Nation's New York president Jim Glancy jumps over to become partner and contributes to the company's expansion and monopoly status by doing shows in larger venues with his long-term Live Nation artists and indie rock stars in venues such as Radio City Music Hall and Madison Square Garden * 2007 – Music Hall of Williamsburg, another mid-size club that broadens the company's portfolio of venues creating an "internal" orbit in which they can promote artists at different career levels and in different neighborhoods * 2007 – Terminal 5 (3000 capacity mid-size venue) in Midtown Manhattan * 2010 – Expansion into Boston 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Bowery Presents」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
