The Read
Iqbal studied ethnomusicology and history before making records, and the music is spare in a way that sounds deliberate rather than unfinished. Guitars and synths, little else.

After
The International BarA narrow front bar on First Avenue with a rear alcove and a yard behind it, every surface layered in graffiti and stickers. It opened on St Marks Place in 1979 and moved here soon after, sat empty for years, and was brought back in 2008. The doors open at 10am.
