• Norah Jones - Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY, 11-8-2015 (blogspot.com) — Fans of Port Chester's Capitol Theatre might enjoy this deep dive into a newly surfaced mono soundboard recording of Norah Jones's 2015 show at the venue. The post explains how the high-quality, 95-minute concert tape emerged from an April 2026 leak of Port Chester performances and highlights the career-spanning setlist. It's a nostalgic look at a notable night in the village's music history, not an upcoming event.
