Welcome Back Grammy Awards

The Grammy Awards will be returning to New York on January 28, 2018. The show will be broadcast live from Madison Square Garden. You Don’t Have To Be Jewish With Cindy followers will have a unique opportunity to party with attendees, nominees and the movers and shakers involved in the ceremony at a pre-Grammy event limited to music executives, promoters and a few “outsiders.”

An A-List Celebration

This year, a fundraiser is drawing lots of attention for its goal of safety while having fun. A limited number of attendees will fill the RADD party, and you could be one of the lucky few. On Wednesday, January 24th, RADD®, together with MD25 Entertainment will be celebrating the iconic ceremonies’ New York roots at The DL. Doors at 6:00PM!
