The Encore ! Sessions at le Baron was a music series of performances of popular and indie artists that ran from 2012-2014.[1] It was produced by Alexandre Sap for FORWARD ENTERPRISES at Le Baron Chinatown in New York City.[2][3]

The concert series was named after the French word "encore", which means "again", and is used to designate an additional performance added to the end of a concert.

In the first series, artists such as Friends,[4] Theophilus London,[5] The Virgins,[6] performed new material in front of a small audience.

On February 21, 2012, London chose this venue to perform Big Spender featuring ASAP Rocky for the first time .[7]

On March 5, 2012, The Virgins chose this venue to debut “Flowers,” “Blue Rose Tattoo” and “Slave To You,” three as-yet unrecorded songs.[8]

Season 2 premiered on December 6, 2012 with three songs from New York electronic pop artist MNDR.

The live sessions are recorded twice a month in high-definition video at Le Baron Chinatown in New York City.
