July heats up as Tea Party Music and Manchildblack present Libation's Summer of Soul Series. Throughout the summer the bi-monthly event will feature resident DJ Ian Friday spinning high level global soul with an amazing line-up of guest dj's including: Osunlade (Yoruba Records), Karizma (Kohesive Productions) and more.
On Thursday, July 10th Libation will celebrate the music of Africa when Philly's own Rich Medina (Afro Disco) joins Ian on the decks. Expect to sweat as both men spin the best in Afro-Beat, Highlife, Global Soul and more in a musical tribute to "the dark continent".
Dance collective Afro Mosaic Soul, will once again host the nights festivities while MTV Art Battle Winner Concep, captures the essence of the party live on canvass.
For this amazing event, Libation will be collecting donations for NextAID. NextAid is a Los Angeles-based non-profit organization committed to developing and implementing innovative solutions to the challenges facing African children. Their mission is to promote community-driven, environmentally sustainable, economically and socially empowering responses to the AIDS orphan pandemic.
