The Chelsea Hotel#2

10 Original Blues/Rock Songs

*

Step inside the legendary Chelsea Hotel, where dreams, chaos, and creativity collided.

The Chelsea Hotel#2 brings to life the lives of Patti Smith, Marianne Faithful, Joan Baez, Robbie Robertson, Madonna, Joni Mitchell, Edie Sedgwick and Iggy Pop – artistic icons who roamed its halls, weaving stories of genius, rebellion, and heartbreak.

From soaring rock ’n’ roll to intimate poetic reflection, the album captures the magic, madness, and enduring spirit of a place that inspired generations!
