”The Reins” ! Out today on all the streaming services, except the worst one. Made right here at @npyrecordingservices. Here’s to endless new beginnings and the unknown 😁👌🏽 @kendra_mckinley you are great and making this jam was truly “a joyful process” to use the words of George Clinton. Big thanks to @drummingforbodies @therealbinz and @lacqueristhebestmedicine for completing the vision. Enjoy! 🙏🏽 by @npylowmentality

“The Bhangra Liberation Orchestra — a Brooklyn-born collective, reclaims Punjabi music as a language of protest, anti-authoritarianism, and diaspora identity…BLO dismantles boundaries between dancefloors, sanctuaries, and the frontlines.”

Tonite, Friday May 1st
Living Language
 @livinglanguageafrobeat brings the afrobeat to LunÀtico in celebration of the master, Fela Kuti! Join us!

@npylowmentality - guitar @troy_mobiusax - alto sax
@fistfullofbrass - trumpet, keyboard @yoshiconga - percussion @therealbinz - bass @g2drums - drums 
***TWO SETS: 9PM & 10:15PM*** ***$10 (CASH) SUGGESTED DONATION*** ***LUNATICO HAS A FULL DINNER AND COCKTAIL MENU SO COME EARLY TO EAT!***
 Led by Nikhil Yerawadekar (Antibalas, Akoya Afrobeat, Low Mentality), LIVING LANGUAGE pays homage to Fela Kuti and his Afrobeat concept in a nimble, soulful jazz format. The band’s sound features undeniable grooves and powerful melodies to motivate the people. Other musicians in the project bring their experience working with icons such as Lee “Scratch” Perry, Charles Bradley, and Vieux Farka Toure to help create this new perspective in Afrobeat.  On top of spending years in projects like Antibalas and Akoya Afrobeat, bandleader / guitarist NIKHIL YERAWADEKAR has recorded music with Tony Allen (legendary drummer and co-creator of the style), performed at the New Afrika Shrine in Lagos, and organized massive Felabration birthday concerts in NYC from 2016-2019. In all this time, Nikhil’s fascination with Fela Kuti’s legacy has only grown, as has the importance of transmitting his uplifting, anticolonial message with new music. by @npylowmentality
