DAVID AMRAM There’s no more suitable send-off for the Cornelia Street Café — which will close next week after 41 years as a home of offbeat poetry, jazz, cabaret and theater in Greenwich Village — than a David Amram show. A remarkable musical polymath and conservationist of beatnik culture, he has played at the club monthly for 13 years and has come to epitomize its essence. At 10:30 p.m., Cornelia Street Café, Manhattan; 212-989-9319, corneliastreetcafe.com. (Giovanni Russonello)

AS THE CROW FLIES AND THE MARCUS KING BAND Chris Robinson has had a prolific career outside the Black Crowes, whose throwback British blues-rock made them a multimillion-selling band in the 1990s; the band announced its breakup in 2015. But hits are hits, and Robinson has put together As the Crow Flies to play them along with some cover songs — probably in jammier versions than the originals. The Marcus King Band, a Southern-rock group with a horn section, shares the bill. Dec. 30 at 8 p.m., New Year’s Eve at 10 p.m. at the Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, N.Y.; 877-987-648, thecapitoltheatre.com. (Jon Pareles)

A SWING SWANG SWINGIN’ NEW YEAR’S EVE Jim Caruso, the buoyant showman who brings Broadway, jazz and cabaret talent to Monday-night open mics, hosts a holiday special showcasing the fluid and charismatic vocalists Veronica Swift, Gabrielle Stravelli and Benny Benack III, and the musical theater veteran Lesli Margherita. (Swift will do double duty, also performing a few numbers with the Birdland Big Band in a separate 11 p.m. set.) They’ll join forces at 8 and 11 p.m., accompanied by the pianist Matt Baker, the bassist Pat O’Leary and the drummer Curtis Nowosad, along with hats, horns, balloons, a complimentary champagne toast and an à la carte menu. At Birdland, Manhattan; 212-581-3080, birdlandjazz.com. (Elysa Gardner)
