Malin went from playing CBGB at age thirteen to Madison Square Garden in his twenties. His first solo album, The Fine Art of Self Destruction, which was hailed as “a masterpiece rising from the pain of a difficult youth” (Classic Rock), launched his long and successful solo career.Almost Grown is a raw, honest, and often funny account of how a hyperactive kid from Queens made his dreams come true—and the hustlers, sweethearts, misfits, and lifelong friends he met along the way. With Malin as its streetwise narrator, the book has more in common with The Basketball Diaries or Just Kids than with the standard rock biography. Although music is at the core of Malin’s soul, the memoir welcomes the reader into the tumultuous inner world of a boy from a broken home determined to create a life he could love.In 2023, Malin was struck with a rare spinal stroke that paralyzed him from the waist down. The lifelong runner and vegetarian went public with this news—and his fierce resolve to walk again—in an interview with Rolling Stone. The story was picked up by the New York Times, People, CNN, Variety, the Los Angeles Times, and other outlets worldwide. The massive outpouring of love and support culminated in the release of Silver Patron Saints: The Songs of Jesse Malin—twenty-eight artists, from Jack Antonoff to Bruce Springsteen, covering his songs to raise money for his recovery. On December 1 and 2, 2024, Malin gave his first public performances since his stroke, taking the stage for two sold-out concerts hosted by actors Michael Imperioli and Mary-Louise Parker at New York’s Beacon Theatre. Malin’s sold-out theatrical production, Silver Manhattan: A Musical Memoir of Survival, is debuting at the Gramercy Theatre in New York in September 2025. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/1a1ac690-f177-11f0-84b7-0f21fd87ed8a-rimg-w493-h740-dc131313-gmir.jpg Jesse Malin is a singer-songwriter signed to Steven Van Zandt’s Wicked Cool Records. Malin’s critically acclaimed 2003 debut, The Fine Art of Self-Destruction, drew the attention of Bruce Springsteen, who invited Malin to perform songs from the album backed by Springsteen’s band at charity concerts. In the following years, Malin has released a string of well-received solo albums. Grammy winner Lucinda Williams produced his award-winning eighth studio album, Sunset Kids, which features guest appearances from Williams and Green Day singer Billie Joe Armstrong. In 2024, Malin released a live album and a full-length film, Chasing the Light, directed by David Stekert and Xander Strohm. He has also published articles in Rolling Stone, the Village Voice, and other magazines. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/jesse-malin-almost-grown/100001979259652902 - **Event Categories**: art, music, entertainment, theatre, kids, concerts, fine-arts, literary-art, nonprofit, charities, live-music - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 13.61, max: 35.61, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Strand Book Store - **lat**: 40.73325150000001 - **long**: -73.99095319999999 - **full address**: Strand Book Store, 828 Broadway, New York, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Jesse Malin: Almost Grown - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/9f4826d4cb370f394a58d29d4b8b332cc43ec7af54e54125a7e76c786765a4e9-rimg-w1200-h628-dcdf1931-gmir.png?v=1768415471 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Jesse Malin: Almost Grown being held? - **A:** Jesse Malin: Almost Grown takes place on Wed, 08 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Wed, 08 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Strand Book Store, 828 Broadway, New York, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Jesse Malin: Almost Grown? - **A:** Ticket prices for Jesse Malin: Almost Grown range from USD 14 to USD 36 depending on the ticket type.

Our founder Benjamin Bass was all of twenty-five years old when he began his modest used bookstore and sought to create a place where books would be loved, and book lovers could congregate. Ninety years and a move over to Broadway, the Strand is still run by the Bass Family and is home to four floors of over 2.5 million used, new, and rare books, a wide array of bookish gifts, and fun literary events held almost every night of the week. From the dollar carts outside to the Rare Book Room on the third floor, and cheeky graffiti-ing throughout the store courtesy of Steve “EPSO” Powers, the iconic store now stands testament a place for book lovers to explore." } ] } ] ```
