2021 DC Funk Parade: Black Broadway
The first time I DJ’d for the Funk Parade was when Nafisa Isa put together a "Women of Funk" showcase at Busboys and Poets, exactly 7 years ago today. Good times!
I’m super excited to be part of Funk Parade’s virtual festival this year! The Musicianship is the Funk Parade’s new home and they’ve put together a dope lineup for you with the theme: Black Broadway!
Get your tickets today! - you can view the Funk Parade at your own leisure on 5/8 Saturday!
Maraming Salamat to Jessica Sturgis for bringing me in and to Jessica Teachey! Looking forward to our future collabs! ✨
