Mekala Session – Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra “60 Years”

Wednesday, June 4 @ 8:30 PM

A Special Listening Session with Mekala Session.

Mekala will present this release, a culmination of 60 years of Black history through sound!

Since its conception in 1961, the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra has had a mission echoed by every director since Horace Tapscott himself, “To preserve the music of Black composers, dead or alive. To perform this music in our neighborhoods, for our people.”

The institution of the Arkestra fostered a culture of community, spirituality, Black empowerment, and most importantly, love.

✨ The bar opens at 6:30 PM, needle drop at 8:30 PM.
✨ No reservations.
✨ We ask for silent listening during the length of the record.
✨ Come early and/or stay late for a chat and a drink!

Mekala Session is a young drummer and musical polymath raised in the fold of the multi-generational Los Angeles jazz band Pan Afrikan People’s Arkesta.
