About

Rockin’ LES since 1988

The Lower East Side has changed quite a bit since 1988 when Rivington Music Rehearsal Studios first opened in the heyday of CBGB, Pyramid Club and Max Fish. Through the years our commitment remains unchanged, providing Manhattan, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, New Jersey and global touring musicians with the equipment and space they need to make their bands succeed, or at least have a good time by offering a music studio rental space in NYC at a cheap price.

We take pride in ensuring our equipment is well maintained and genuinely the type of gear we’d want to play. Join bands like Snake Canyon, New York Junk, The Threads, Jane Lee Hooker, Animal Reporters & other national and locally renowned bands that have had sessions here at Rivington Music. Whether you’re a rock band, a jazz trio or a 7-piece ska band, we’ve got the practice rooms and gear you need to make it happen.

Cancellation Policy

Rivington Music (also referred to on this page as RMRS) operates on a 48 hour notice for all cancellations or reschedules. RMRS does not issue monetary refunds (see bellow for booking errors or mistakes).

Requests for cancellation or booking changes with more than 48 hours notice will be issued a house credit for the same value, so the client can rebook their rehearsal at their convenience. *Credits expire 180 days from date of issue.*

For cancellation made with less than 48 hours notice no credit will be issued, and there will be no possibility of reschedule, including rehearsals booked on the same day.

Credits are redeemed on our BOOK A STUDIO page. No credit will be issued for a session booked using a credit.

Booking Errors or Mistakes

Clients are asked to check email confirmations/receipts, sent via email by Rivington Music, immediately for any discrepancies in their bookings. Please email us immediately to rectify any problem. RMRS will leave a 1 hour window open for changes or refunds, after which our standard cancellation policy applies.

Weather Related Cancellations

RMRS will not close due to weather unless mandated by the City of New York. The exception to this is if the MTA Subway service is cancelled due to severe weather. Please refer to the MTA INFO PAGE for extra details.
