The Deli


The Deli is an independent music magazine, with both print and online editions, as well as a blog that cover local music scenes and their emerging artists. The magazine is run from Brooklyn, New York, and covers multiple cities and genres.

Magazine

The Deli, launched in 2004, continues an earlier, local fanzine founded by Charles Newman, a music producer and studio owner in New York City. Published both in print and online, The Deli covers emerging independent artists in various locales and scenes: New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Nashville, Portland, Austin, Kansas City, Philadelphia and the New England area.
The magazine's print edition is quarterly. Both the print and online editions have further versions tailored to specific locales, yet otherwise have similar sections: editorials on the current music scene, interviews of music bands and of industry insiders, reviews of albums and of equipment, and classified ads.

Activities

Since 2009, The Deli website has included blogs, polls, charts, and live listings updated daily. The Deli also hosts live music events, mainly The Deli's Best of NYC Fest, which, occurring in the spring, is preceded by the magazine's Best of NYC Yearly Poll, whose jury is comprised by New York booking agents, bloggers and scenemakers.
