The Lichy Nuts at Hill Country: Your November 14 Plan
A one-night Jam For Good benefit in Manhattan: who it suits, what is confirmed, and what to check before booking.
Want a Saturday-night gig with room for musical detours rather than a predictable hits set? The Lichy Nuts are scheduled to play Hill Country Live in Manhattan on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at 9 p.m. New York time (EST), with Jon Gonzales and Andrew Wolff. CEG Presents lists the show as a Jam For Good benefit. This is a future event, not a review of a performance we attended.
The useful decision is not simply whether you like live music. It is whether an occasional, improvisation-minded band and a charitable purpose are enough of a draw for you—and whether the admission terms work for your group.
Choose this for the music, not a guaranteed set list
The organizer describes the New York trio—brothers Abe, Josh, and David Lichy—as combining jam-band rock, funk, electronic textures, and psychedelia, with both originals and covers. It also describes the band as an occasional gathering rather than a regularly touring act. That makes this a specific one-night opportunity, not a standing Saturday residency.
A good fit: listeners who enjoy genre-crossing, open-ended live music and would welcome a benefit-show setting. Less certain: anyone choosing mainly for a particular song, a precisely timed guest appearance, or a guaranteed short set. The listing names Jon Gonzales and Andrew Wolff, but it does not establish a running order or set length; do not build a tight second reservation around either.
The confirmed plan: one show, one Manhattan address
- Date: Saturday, November 14, 2026.
- Listed time: 9 p.m. EST, in the America/New_York time zone. Treat this as the advertised event time, not a separately verified door-opening time.
- Venue: Hill Country Live at Hill Country Barbecue Market, 30 West 26th Street, New York, NY 10010, in Manhattan.
- Bill: The Lichy Nuts with Jon Gonzales and Andrew Wolff, presented by Jam For Good.
Hill Country's own site identifies its downstairs live-music venue as the Boot Bar. The concert is the reason for this guide; the restaurant photograph shows the venue's dining interior, not the stage or a past Lichy Nuts performance. Use the exact street address when planning the trip rather than a generic search for 'Hill Country.'
What the benefit supports
According to the organizer's event description, Jam For Good is a nonprofit using live music to support children with cancer, and this show's net proceeds support children and families receiving care at MSK Kids in New York City. That is a reason to consider this particular bill, not a promise that the full ticket price is donated or that a ticket is tax-deductible.
If the charitable element is your deciding factor, read the current event description before purchasing. No additional donation, merchandise package, meet-and-greet, or other perk is established by the listing used for this guide.
Make dinner optional—and check the ticket terms first
Hill Country's official venue page describes a Central Texas-style barbecue market with meats sold by weight. Dinner can make sense as a separate part of the evening, but do not assume a restaurant table reservation includes concert admission or guarantees a concert seat. Ask the venue how dining and show access work for this event before coordinating a group. Food, drinks, and concert admission should not be treated as a single verified package.
The promoter links to TicketWeb, but a current purchasable ticket offer could not be verified during this check. No live ticket price or remaining availability is claimed here. Before paying, check:
- the current on-sale, sold-out, postponement, or cancellation notice and the total checkout price, including fees;
- the event's minimum age and ID requirements—an event supporting children is not automatically an all-ages show;
- door time, seating or standing arrangements, and the refund policy;
- step-free access or other access needs, if relevant to your visit.
For unresolved venue questions, Hill Country lists 212-255-4544 and info@hillcountryny.com. A practical plan is to settle admission and access first, then add dinner only if its timing works; no show-end time has been verified.
The bottom line
Consider this if you want one specific Manhattan music night built around an occasionally convened band and a local charitable cause. It is a weaker choice if you need an assured song list, an age policy you have not checked, or tightly scheduled plans afterward. Confirm the live ticket terms before committing, and keep November 14 at 9 p.m. as the advertised event anchor—not a promise about doors or finish time.
Checked November 6, 2026 against CEG Presents' official event listing, Hill Country's location page, and its live-music page. The promoter's URL retains an older slug; its visible event title names The Lichy Nuts with Jon Gonzales and Andrew Wolff. Recheck the current listing before travel.
