Started by Irish immigrant Shane Doyle in 1989, Sin-é was a coffee shop that serve $2 coffee during the day and had live performances at night. The intimate space became a hangout for writers, musicians and artists in the East Village, especially among fans of Irish music and culture.
Shane McGowan and Sinéad O'Connor performed here, and Jeff Buckley's first EP "Live at Sin-é" was recorded here.
An episode of the Documentary on One- RTÉ Documentaries called "Sin-é: Jeff Buckley's Irish Odyssey" goes into more detail about this location.
