SUMMARY:Mizik Ayiti! Residency Late Spring Series | Rasin Okan
DESCRIPTION:Join HCX on Thursdays for the Mizik Ayiti! Residency Series. The Spring residency will be held by Rasin Okan! \nThis residency honors the legacy of mizik rasin in Haiti and abroad and its role in collective storytelling. Rasin Okan will share popular folk songs from legends such as Lenord Fortune (a.k.a. Azor) and Jacques Fortere (a.k.a. Wawa)\, as well as original songs that echo the courage of Haiti’s freedom fighters while calling us to remember\, reconnect\, and rise. This residency is a sacred pilgrimage home—a journey for healing\, reflection\, and protection. We invite you to take this symbolic trip with us through rhythm\, drum\, dance\, and song. Let the music move your spirit. Let the memory ignite your soul. \n45-minute performances will take place at 6:30 & 7:45 PM on each Thursday. \n\nAbout Rasin Okan: Born of Haiti’s mizik rasin movement\, Rasin Okan is a Brooklyn-based Haitian roots ensemble. In the spirit of rasin sèch (directly translated to dry roots)\, Rasin Okan emphasizes the sounds and songs of traditional Haitian Vodou ceremonial music without much electric accompaniment. Led and co-founded by Jean E. Montina\, Sanba Mayombe\, the group writes original songs and evocative folk music to insight the revolutionary spirit of Haiti’s freedom fighters\, set to a pulsating rhythm. \nMembers: Jean E Montina (Sanba Mayombe)\, Trudy Pierre (Sanba Verite)\, Wilgainson Toussaint (Sanba Nènèl)\, Gregory Fanor (Atis Alèz)\, Véronëque Ignace (Awoyo) \n\nTickets include a complimentary beverage.\nSpecial pop-up offerings from Bon Pâtés.\nLimited capacity\, RSVP strongly recommended.

SUMMARY:Jazz Ain't Boring
DESCRIPTION:Jazz Ain’t Boring is a live music experience that explores how jazz continues to shape modern sound and dance culture. Blending DJ sets with live band performance\, the program moves fluidly between classic jazz recordings\, contemporary interpretations\, and the hip-hop\, house\, and soul records they inspired. \nThroughout the evening\, DJs and musicians trade energy—moving from Miles Davis\, John Coltrane\, and Lou Donaldson into the records that sampled them\, from A Tribe Called Quest and Wu-Tang Clan to Mary J. Blige\, Kanye West\, and beyond. \nThe result is a dynamic listening and dance-floor experience that treats jazz not as museum music\, but as a living foundation for groove\, rhythm\, and celebration. \nCurated and hosted by #SampleSaleMusic members DJ Dottie Womack\, Reg Wyns\, Tai Allen\, Emanuel Ruffler\, and Ian Forde\, the program highlights jazz’s enduring influence while inviting the audience to move\, listen\, and connect across generations of sound.
