City Park Jazz: The Other Black (featuring Wesley Watkins)

June 4, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

City Park Jazz produces 10 FREE jazz concerts each summer in City Park.
Whether you’re coming for the music, food, or friends, City Park Jazz is the
ground upon where community is built.

The Other Black (featuring Wesley Watkins)

Newly formed in the late Fall of 2012, this dynamic group started with a mere 9
members and has launched to upwards of 24. That’s right, just about 30 musicians
collaborating to bring you a unique sound and leave you with a smile in your soul.
These are musicians that have already contributed successfully to the scene; from Birds Of A Feather, Bonnie & The Beard, Petals of Spain, The People’s Abstract and more.

Needless to say, upon taking stage – this assortment of artistry commands it’s presence. Their act has been compared to reading an old school Parliament comic book. In a nutshell, this crowd’s get-up is wild, garish, & funky with fresh attire that makes you believe they MUST have a costume designer amongst them somewhere. In short, they are like watching a cartoon come to life.

The Other Black clearly simply loves what they do. Their soul-funk- do-wop mix with a modern squeeze endears them. People are on their feet when The Other Black hits the stage. If you haven’t seen them yet, you will.
