TRAVEL WITH VERGEZ™ - Vol. 2

Writer: Philippe VergezPhilippe Vergez

Updated: Jan 28

The Hamptons, a slice of beachy paradise in Long Island, New York, is a magnet for artists and musicians. 


Countless visiting songsmiths, such as Mick Jagger, Bono, Bruce Springsteen and Justin Timberlake, have been captivated by its relaxing charms, and many music industry bigs have decided to call it home. 


Over the years it has been a place where you could see Chris Martin surf, Paul McCartney ride a bike, Billy Joel dock his boat, Paul Simon play a benefit, Jon Bon Jovi walk into his restaurant, or Jay-Z and Beyonce take a stroll. 


If you’re in a rock n’ roll state of mind - and want to get your creative juices flowing, travel with Vergez to the Hamptons and put these places on your lyrical to-go list.


Mick Jagger’s time in Montauk is immortalized in The Rolling Stones’ Memory Motel.
Memory Motel, where stories turned into a song.

Mick Jagger and the Stones may have written about The Memory Motel in Montauk, but Shagwong was where Jagger drank from his own bottle of Grand Marnier in the mid-70s.


Sag Harbor Hotel
The Sofa where Billy Joel and Bono had a memorable conversation.

Sag Harbor's American Hotel, which made news recently for serving Justin Timberlake, makes delicious refreshments, from luscious libations to their non-alcoholic ice tea. It is a charming spot, brimming with old-school Americana, a place where Jimmy Buffet drank at the bar and Bono and Billy Joel chatted on the couch.


Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett
Who hasn't played the Talkhouse?
