today at 7pm I am moderating a talk on global hiphop in times of social change at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, speaking with Amkoullel, Deeb, El General (the Tunisian one), and Shadia Mansour.
tomorrow, Friday March 8, I’ll be at Cincinnati’s Contemporary Arts Center, DJing the opening party of their ‘ON! Handcrafted Digital Playgrounds’ exhibit. My first time playing in the city, so come on through!
Early April I’m returning to the Contemporary Arts Center with pianists David Friend, Emily Manzo, and vocalist Arooj Aftab, to debut the Julius Eastman Memorial Dinner performance! More on the JEMD tour soon; here’s a nice preview feature from Cincinnati City Beat newspaper.
Saturday, March 16th, I’m doing a special all-cumbia set @ Littlefield, with L.A.’s premier roots latin rabblerousing band, Very Be Careful! I’ll have Talacha on the mic sonidero style, too. Info.
Jace, do you know whether and when the BAM talk will be online? Thanks.
hey ES — I don’t think so. BAM is putting together some video highlights from the talk + the weekend, however.
Jace,
I am a musician from the locked-out Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, whose management is presenting your Liquid Music performances. Would you please respond privately to this email so I can let you know some information about that situation?
Sincerely,
Brenda Mickens
For those of you in Cincinnati, we’re doing a(n unofficial) afterparty the Friday (Apr 5th) of Jace’s performance debut.
