Sessions at West 54th

TV SERIES 1997 3 SEASONS

Overview

Sessions at West 54th was an American television program that featured music performances, and was in some ways a pop music variation on the theme set by the long-lived Austin City Limits, though the featured musicians represented a number of musical genres. It was called Sessions at West 54th because it was taped at Sony Music Studios on West 54th Street in Manhattan. It was produced for public television syndicator American Program Service and was carried on many public television stations. It first aired in most places on July 5, 1997, when it was included in the Saturday late-night lineup of stations covering 85% of the country. After the program ended, an edited for commercial television version also aired on the commercial Trio cable television network.

This production, originally released in 1997, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Documentary series, it brings a fresh perspective to the genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 8.0 across its 3 seasons.
