Soul Cycle at BAM Café
FreeNYC Event Flyer Date: Friday, January 25th
Time: 9:00pm
Location: BAM Café (Peter Jay Sharp Building, 30 Lafayette Ave, Ft. Green)
Cost: Free
Living in Brooklyn, one the things I definitely do not take advantage of enough is BAM Café. Sure I go there for the occasional movie and a play or two, but every Friday and Saturday night, BAM Café showcases renowned and emerging artists, featuring jazz, R&B, world beat, pop, and experimental music from Brooklyn and beyond. Tonight, the Brooklyn-based quartet Soul Cycle takes to the stage with their blend of soul, jazz, hip-hop, and funk. "Influenced by the early 1970s sound of Herbie Hancock, Weather Report, Miles Davis, and James Brown, the group plays with a focus on rhythmic energy and a free-wheeling incorporation of a plethora of musical styles and moods, often within the same composition."

Tonight the film is shown at The Rubin Museum of Art as part of Brainwave, an extravaganza of art, music, and ideas. It is free admission but there is a $7 drink minimum.
