Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings will play a free Celebrate Brooklyn show in Prospect Park on Saturday, August 7th. It will be amazing, much like the two this weekend at the Apollo will be too.
Other bands recently announced to be playing Prospect Park this summer are Sonic Youth, Konono #1 and Norah Jones.
Monday night Sharon appeared on the Colbert Report. Videos from that (especially awesome = Colbert introducing the band before they play live) below...
