Underground System x Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense

  • Secret Location Brooklyn, NY 11237 (map)

Take Two is an immersive deep-listening night consisting of two elements: an uninterrupted, high-quality playback of a seminal jazz album, followed by a live, modern-day reinterpretation by New York City’s finest musicians.

Our second edition will feature the Nigerian multi-instrumentalist Fela Anikulapo Kuti and his 1986 classic album: Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense.

The live reinterpretation will be performed by members of Underground System, who have just returned from a national tour on the back of their debut LP What Are You, as well as Antibalas, and Low Mentality.

Lineup:

> Domenica Fossati // Flute, Vocals

> Peter Matson // Guitar

> Carter Yusatake // Keys, Trumpet

> Yoshio Kobayashi // Drums

> Nikhil P. Yerawadekar // Bass, Vocals

Take Two will be held in a private loft space in Bushwick featuring vintage Klipsch loudspeakers and comfortable seating arrangements.
