NYC: Just A Band - All The Way From Kenya!

NYC: Just A Band - All The Way From Kenya!


All the way from Nairobi, our favorite new electro-synth-pop-afro-futurists, Just A Band, have arrived in New York City.  If you're a native NYer, hopefully you've already checked out their art installation "Kudishnyao!" which debuted at RUSH gallery in Chelsea last week (it's up until Sept. 3).  And then there was their epic performance at the OKAYSUMMER! pop-up party this past Saturday (check out the amazing photos HERE).  Next up?  A live performance this Thursday at Drom (85 Ave. A) in the East Villy.  Get your tix now for only 10 bones (15 at the door).  For more from Just A Band, check out their fresh video for “Ha-He” a.k.a “Makmende Returns” below, and then head to their website for more.  Shout out to BoldAsLove.us who are presenting this dope show.
