The musical lineup for the event is curated in collaboration with Harlem Late Night Jazz, a local arts non-for-profit, and consists of the master conguero Joaquin Pozo, the virtuous saxophonist David Lee Jones with Soul Power Band, and the legendary DJ Stormin Norman.
The event is sponsored by Gorillas, Truly Hard Seltzer, Green Mountain Energy, Twisted Tea, and Dogfish Head.
“We had to postpone the last minute on the original date, which was very upsetting to the community and our partners,” said Executive Producer Marco Shalma. “But we took the time to refocus and go, as they say – go big or go home. This party is going to be insane.”
