Louie Vega invites Detroit icon Moodymann, fellow Masters at Work member Kenny Dope, longtime collaborator Anané and Deon Cole (of Black-ish and Barbershop) to Knockdown Center. Vega is on double duty, playing both stages. Moodymann returns for the first time since his sold out show with Mr. G over a year ago, while Kenny Dope makes his debut at the venue. Anané once again joins Vega indoors and Deon Cole brings his soulful chops to the Ruins. It’s a family affair.
Pitchfork and Them are excited to announce Night Out, a Pride celebration and concert taking place on Saturday, June 17, from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. Eastern at Knockdown Center in Queens, New York. The event features Tinashe, Lido Pimienta, Pom Pom Squad, Zebra Katz, Papi Juice, Ariel Zetina and Bushwig hosted by Horchata and friends.
Advance tickets for Night Out are available with the option to donate $5 to the Transgender Law Center. There will also be limited tickets available at the door for $50. Night Out is supported by Human by Orientation, an LGBTQ+ initiative from Max, Warner Bros. Discovery’s enhanced streaming platform.
