Kamasi Washington expands tour, playing Jersey City (BrooklynVegan Presents)
Kamasi Washington is touring for most of the summer, playing shows all over the world, including Morocco, Belgium, Poland, Spain, Italy and more. He’s got North American dates with Herbie Hancock, and he’ll play Brooklyn’s Afropounk Festival at the end of August. He’ll also play Wilco’s Mexico destination festival in January, 2020.
Kamasi has just added another NYC-area show: Jersey City’s White Eagle Hall on August 1 which is pretty intimate for him these days and BrooklynVegan is proud to be presenting. (It’s the same night Herbie Hancock plays NYC’s Beacon Theatre.) Tickets for the White Eagle Hall show go on sale Wednesday, June 12 at 10 AM but you can get them first with the BrooklynVegan presale that runs Tuesday, June 11 at 10 AM through 10 AM Wednesday. Check back Tuesday morning for the presale password. UPDATE: Password HERE.
UPDATE: Taylor McFerrin has been added to the Jersey City show.
All dates are listed, along with a stream of Kamasi’s 2018 album Heaven and Earth, below.
