When we left off, our fearless intrepid adventurers were preparing for BoCoCa Outdoors at Carroll Park. And they did not disappoint! When we say we've got a killer line-up, we mean it. Devlin Miles opened up the show and got everyone, including the bocce players, to pay attention. You can see some great footage of her set on Youtube and Brooklynfans.com. Ganessa and Tiffany James were up next. They've been a Timebomb favorite for years now and they amazed the Carroll Park crowd. Then Swift Technique stepped up and crushed the game. There is footage from the show of a man who walks with a cane dancing through their entire set. Finally, we did what we do. Again, you can catch parts of the show on Youtube if you weren't fortunate enough to be there. We invited Swift Technique's horn players up to do "Time Is Now" with us. Stacy and Karnage did the totem pole. We performed all the hits and some newer songs. Good times.
But that's not all. Nope, we do more than just music. Shanelle taught a basketball clinic for the kids. BR, Olivia, Shanelle AND her mom ran an art class. Jibrail played drums for Devlin and Ganessa (and did another show later that night). Stacy made sure we never ran out of power. And we have to give a HUGE thanks to Illard Scottt for sound; Eileen and Don and everyone at the BoCoCa Arts Festival; all of the vendors who helped make the event possible; Coca-Cola for donating cases of their Illy coffee drink; the volunteers; and everyone who came out.
We should also mention that Karnage is working on a lot of things besides Timebomb music. His hardcore band, Shakuan, has been playing all over NYC. He's been putting on Rockadelic shows with our brothers in Sound Frontier and Rain of Kings. And Karnage and his partner Sanctum are producing the first Bed-Stuy Live! Music Festival on July 23 in Von King Park, Brooklyn. The line-up includes People's Champs, the Rosa Hyde Quintet, Rain of Kings, BR and Timebomb, Illard Scott and many more!
Stay tuned. This summer will be legendary.
