New York City has one of the best music scenes in the world... if you're wallet can keep up. Fortunately, the sheer size of the Big Apple provides lots of free opportunities for concertgoers to enjoy some of their favorite acts. For your convenience, we've assembled a list of the best free shows in the city this week.

Wednesday

DMV rapper GoldLink is on the cusp of stardom. The critically-acclaimed mixtape The God Complex had the Internet raving over this mysterious MC and his whip-smart rhyming abilities over future bounce beats. Don't miss his debut show in NYC tomorrow night at The Westway with Brenmar, Mess Kid, and Gianni Lee. RSVP here.

Thursday
