Event Details
Kofi and Sankofa
Kofi has been drumming and performing internationally for over 30 years. He directs the African drum and dance ensemble Sankofa. He uses African culture in assemblies, lectures, performances, drum circles and traditional African Ananse (spider) stories to promote diversity in all cultures: in schools, communities, conferences as well as festivals.
City and Forest
City and Forest is the sonic lovechild of Zarah Cabañas and Matt Werden. Creating a world of lush vocal melodies and grooveful guitars, City and Forest's alchemical explorations transform what's new into something a little more comfortable. Joining Zarah (a long time collaborator with The Roots) and Matt (formerly of LoHo Studios/Blue Man Group) are guests Ezra Gale of Molly Tigre and drummer Janna Pelle.
Mark Partridge
Bethel Woods Teaching Artist Mark Partridge is a composer, filmmaker, and multimedia artist living in the Catskills with his wife, daughter, and an ever-growing menagerie of animals. His creative career runs the gamut from pop songwriting to punk bands to film directors and experimental sound designers. He’s played guitar for most of his life. These days he loves making music with machines.
