Concert | Jazz and Funk: Robert Glasper Experiment / Phony Ppl / Tank and The Bangas


After playing in various jazz bands, Robert Glasper released his first solo album in 2004, named Mood, which featured original compositions and his take on several jazz classics (notably one of Herbie Hancock’s, a favorite artist of Glasper’s). His next release, 2005’s Canvas, saw Glasper flexing his skills on the Fender Rhodes electric piano, creating an undeniably bold new sound. Phony Ppl either crash-landed from the past or the future: critics and fans can’t decide. Since throwing warehouse shows around New York in 2011, the five Brooklyn natives have tossed together vintage astral funk, soulful complex R&B, and dusted-out hip-hop to evoke a newfound, genre-less music. Tank and The Bangas have all of the qualities that root them in New Orleans, their city of origin, but they are also gifted with a special artistic flair. Their performances have been described as “one of the most energetic shows you’ll ever see,” and they’ve performed everywhere from top national concert venues to a gospel tent in Mississippi.

Musical | Harbored: A New Theatrical Experience with a Cast of 50+ Performers


A new theatrical experience by En Garde Arts, Harbored is a site-specific work that weaves together stories from the last two centuries of immigration in the U.S.— a stone’s throw from Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Written and directed by Jimmy Maize with music by Heather Christian sung by the Downtown Voices choir, a cast of 50+ performers tell the stories of twentieth-century author Willa Cather and her character Antonia, Lewis and Clark pursuing their dream of the American West, and everyday citizens who came through Ellis Island. Immigration stories will be gathered each day from passersby and integrated into the script that evening, tying the past to the present and making for an entirely new theatrical experience each time. Championing an immersive process of understanding and discovery, Harbored redefines the ways in which we think about America’s past, present and future.

Some of us inspire and others destroy, twisting around each other as we try to find our balance, moving into the divine. Written by Jason Howard.
