*New Party Alert*
SOL ASCENSION
(A Global Soul Live Music Event)
Saturday nights in NYC just got hotter!!! Legendary nightclub SOB'S and recording artist/promoter of the popular Libation party, Manchildblack, bring you a night of global grooves with their brand new dance party, Sol Ascension. This monthly soiree is dedicated to showcasing the best live acts and dj's in the genres of global soul, afro-beat, funk, deep house and nu jazz to keep you dancing all night long!
On Saturday, November 22nd, Sol Ascension sets it off with a bang when the artist that Gilles Peterson calls '...the man behind a million great tunes' stops by to construct beats live onstage - acclaimed UK producer/musician/dj Mark de Clive-Lowe. His 2005 smash album Tides Arising is now a future soul classic as are his brilliant remixes for the likes of Jody Watley, Omar and Brazilian superstar Ed Motta. Mark's latest solo release is the Japanese exclusive JOURNEY 2 THE LIGHT (Freedom School Records) featuring Bembe Segue, Jason Yarde and Sammy Figueroa (Miles Davis). The next long player release on the schedule is MELODIUS BEATS VOL.2 – a collection of Mark’s recent remixes, productions and collaboartions, due out in the New Year. Check out a clip of Mark live here:

For this, his first NYC appearance in over a year, Mark will be joined onstage by the powerhouse vocalist of such dance floor anthems as 4Hero's "Hold it Down" and King Britt's "Happiness", the incomparable Lady Alma. If that weren't enough, the amazing producer of such club classics as "Life Starts Today" and resident dj of the famed Libation party, Ian Friday, will keep the dance floor jumpin' when he spins for this incredible night of music. Sol Ascension will also feature exclusive visuals by photo provocateur Human. Get ready to ASCEND!!!
