This November, as part of the “New York Voices” series presented by Joe’s Pub, our band will be premiering NO PLACE TO GO, an original song cycle about the demise of a local workplace and the diminishing returns of the American dream. The show features a boatload of new songs and a narrative that’s funny, sad and cranky, and it’s not quite like anything we’ve done before.
The series also features evenings of music by Lady Rizo, Allen Toussaint, Toshi Reagon and Angelique Kidjo, and is made possible through a grant from the NEA. We’re honored to be in such butt-kicking company, and we hope you’ll come out to see these shows.
Nov 10th, 11th & 12th @ 7:00pm
