Cimafunk is a Grammy-nominated, Afro-Cuban Rockstar. His name refers to his heritage as a “cimarrón,” Cubans of African descent who resisted and escaped slavery, as well as to the essence of his music that aims to subvert classical Cuban rhythms with innovative mixes of funk, afrobeat and hip hop. Cimafunk has received overwhelming praise touring the U.S. and Europe, making a name for himself as one of today’s great showman, performing an electric live show with La Tribu, his 9-person band from Havana. His live show is a celebration of groove and an unforgettable sonic and bodily experience. Cimafunk is redefining contemporary Cuban music as well as Afro-Latin identity and the fusion of black cultures. His latest album, El Alimento, was nominated at the 2023 GRAMMY Awards for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.
GB3 opens
When Brooklyn collective Gentleman Brawlers performs, it's more than a concert: It's an electrifying experience. Led by creative duo Becca Fox and Matt Walsh, the band channels musical inspo Talking Heads with their distinct brand of Afrofunk and indie dance music that becomes a visual as well as auditory feast on stage."If you can MOVE you can DANCE!" shouts an exuberant Fox from the stage -- or from the dance floor, where she's joined the crowd. Gentleman Brawlers loves to engage an audience, and the audience loves them right back.
Celebrated by BBC’s Tom Robinson, NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest, & WNYC’s The Greene Space, Gentleman Brawlers has opened for Cimafunk, Fantastic Negrito, & Los Amigos Invisibles. Their popular electronic trio, GB3, enables the group to bring its lively show to intimate spaces, while still delivering a pint-sized pop punch to any venue.
