The Shed |
A World Premiere Shed Commission
Soundtrack of America will open The Shed with a five-night concert series celebrating the unrivaled impact of African American music on contemporary culture with performances by today’s most exciting emerging musicians. Conceived and directed by Turner Prize-winning artist and Oscar-winning filmmaker Steve McQueen, and developed with music visionaries and academic experts (Quincy Jones, namely and Greg Phillinganes serving as musical director), Soundtrack traces a musical “family tree” of spirituals and blues, jazz and gospel, R&B, rock and roll, house, hip hop, and trap that has inspired a new generation of artists who continue to develop that legacy.
Night #4 will feature Sy Smith, Oshun, Melanie Faye, Cory Henry and Terrace Martin – all stellar artists for this all-star night!
