About Home by 9:

Zenbu Media and Blue Water Grill are proud to announce an exciting new music series that targets the music-loving business executive. Finally, there is a solution for busy professionals whose schedules simply don’t allow for nighttime concerts: music, dinner and drinks between the hours of 6 and 8 p.m. The patron is Home by 9. Steve Bernstein, a former Wall Street professional and president of Zenbu Media, is an avid live music fan and recognizes the need for a new concert series specifically tailored to the business world. “As someone who loves live music but works a lot of hours, I realize there aren’t a lot of options to go out during the week,” says Bernstein, who also runs the popular music publication, Relix Magazine. “Many of my friends work on Wall Street and will jump at the chance to see live music after work if they can still be home by nine o’clock to spend time with their families.”

The Home by 9 music series kicks off Wednesday June 25th with an intimate performance by Jonah Smith in the lush Jazz Room of Blue Water Grill, which is in the B.R. Guest family of restaurants. Centrally located in Manhattan’s Union Square, Blue Water is the ideal fit for Home by 9. “We are always looking for new and creative ways to enhance the experience of our guests,” says Andrew Wintner, Director of Strategic Marketing for Blue Water Grill. “Home By 9 is not only a unique musical experience, but it lends itself perfectly toward the intimate and cozy setting of Blue Water Grill.” Tickets will include the restaurant’s amazing signature cuisine with a prix fix menu that features appetizers, entrée and dessert. But for many, the music will serve as the evening’s main course. Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Jonah Smith will provide the entertainment, with his unique recipe of jazz, soul and classic rock roots. “The music industry meets its future,” raves The New York Post in regards to Smith. Veteran rock journalist Anthony DeCurtis calls Jonah “as soulful and satisfying as a spoonful of Tupelo Honey…A spellbinding talent whose time has arrived.” To learn more about Jonah, visit his website at www.JonahSmith.com.
