Slavic Soul Party! back at Joe's Pub for 4 shows this Spring!

"Fiery Balkan brass, throbbing funk grooves, Gypsy accordian wizardry, and virtuoso jazz chops: Slavic Soul Party! is just what it says. These nine musicians have created an acoustic mash-up of Balkan and Gypsy sounds with North American music, weaving the gospel, funk, dub, jazz, and Latin influences of New York's neighborhoods seamlessly into a Balkan brass setting and always "delivering a great time." -The New York Times

FOUR SHOWS THIS SPRING:

Slavic Soul Party! plays Ellington: the Far East Suite (MAR 28)

Slavic Soul Party! plays Markovic: Hani Rumba (APR 25)

Slavic Soul Party! plays Deerhoof (MAY 23)  

Slavic Soul Party! plays themselves: All Originals (JUN 27)

Rave review of February's DanceNOW show: Dorothy, Annie, Maria

"The audience is close enough to see every minute detail, every facial expression, and every flash of the eye. The playful blurring of the audience-performer line completely absorbs. At Joe’s Pub, I am." -Garnet Henderson, New York, NY

globalFEST: 10 Years HIGHLIGHTS

Congrats to the GLOBALFEST CREW!

 

For some context and history of what we begrudgingly call “world music” and honestly of the music industry as a whole, I would recommend this Village Voice article:  Why “World Music” Doesn’t Mean Anything Anymore: What I Learned At APAP

And if you couldn’t make it to globalFEST this year, definitely take a listen to the NPR Music All Songs Considered show dedicated to globalFEST along with some videos and full music sets of all the artists– it’s also featured heavily on the NPR music app and it’s a lot of fun!

 

·         New York Times: World Music Informed by The Past and Fiery In The Here and Now

"Over the last decade Globalfest has presented 21st-century world music as an accelerating fusion, a recombinant free-for-all of local traditions meeting ideas and technologies from afar. It's a realistic view of how musicians work; very few are purists. And some hybrids have grown durable enough to feel like traditions  of their own." -Jon Pareles

 

·         NPR Music “All Songs Considered”: Discoveries From GlobalFEST 2013

"I want to say this about globalFEST...the range of ages, not just of the performers, and the range of faces and characters and people from every walk of life in the audience just thrills me...it's so promising, so hopeful...globalFEST is everywhere, all over the map, and I love that. You really feel like you're in a community." - Bob Boilen

 

·         NBC New York: GlobalFEST Tenth Anniversary

"We spoke with Bill Bragin, one of the co-producers of GlobalFEST, an eclectic multi-stage music festival that welcomes artists of various backgrounds and popularity to its showcase every January at Webster Hall. From Malian folk-pop to bombastic marching bands, the tenth anniversary of the festival welcomed thousands of visitors to celebrate the vibrancy of the international music scene."-Oresti Tsonopoulos

 

·         New York Daily News: GlobalFest 2013: A World of Music Comes to New York from Mali to Spain to Iran to the US

"For the 10th year, the city will host Globalfest, America's best-curated nexus of sounds from around the planet...Careers in America can be launched this way. The artists showcased at Globalfest often go on to become the country's most talked-about stars from far-flung locales."

 

·         The Hollywood Reporter: New York’s Jazzfest and GlobalFEST Cross-Pollinate, Make Beautiful Music Together

"The cross-pollination of world music and jazz is clearly a positive -- as the tastes and sensibilities of many promoters easily overlap. As a result, artists showcased at either festival could end up onstage at Bonnaroo, Coachella or Pitchfork, infiltrate jazz festivals across North America, or simply play at the local community arts center near you"-Mitch Myers

 

·         Village Voice: GlobalFEST – Webster Hall – 1/13

“...globalFEST played host to more strong female headliners than ever before...Earth Mother energy was pervasive...This was also the most conceptually balanced roster of talent I recall seeing at any Global Fest. Moving from room to room throughout the evening you could often sense one performer's key qualities instructively illuminating another's.”

 

·         Star Ledger: GlobalFEST 2013 New York Program Help To Bridge Between Performers Concert Halls

"This is Globalfest's 10th anniversary, and it is now its own nonprofit organization. It has established a fund to help world-music performers mount tours across North America and has spawned additional showcases at South by Southwest and Bonnaroo. From its beginnings as an ad hoc one-night event, GlobalFEST the organization is helping to bridge the gap between world-music performers and concert halls."
