Big love to you on this new

detain us we know that the people's spirit is strong and we will push on and continue
to fight the good fight! 2011 was a year of pushing thru some tough times as the
world made many changes. We always kept the music and good vibes flowing and we
look forward to continuing that path in this here new year! Thank you so much
to all who came out to Elbo Room last Thursday night for what was a bangin' way
to end a bangin' year. Thank you guys for all of your support thru the years!!!

25 plus years DJing in this sometimes difficult or fickle city, musically speaking.
The resident percussionist will be on hand as usual.

the Afrolicious sound returning to Public Works to play on that legendary Function
One soundsytem of theirs. We always have a great time at Public Works and would

are unable to make it Thursday night.

in the Mission. Monday January 9th Afrolicious live band and DJ Pleasuremaker will

FELA! Broadway cast/band at Afrolicious party!
Greetings soulful music lovers!
Last week we gave thanks to the music gods and got down like we always do, with soul, passion, energy, and life! So blessed to keep this musical path with you. We had a great time down in Los Angeles at the Mint playing with our homies Orgone. We got such a great crowd response and had a blast! Also last Saturday night we broke in Monarch, a brand new club down on 6th and Mission. They have a great sound system and a great vibe inside the club.
This week we are so fired up to bring you the cast of Fela! who will be bringing their version of Fela's classic material in a live band setting that has been winning over audiences around the world since it debuted in NYC a couple years back. This will be a legendary Afrolicious and you may want to get there early as it may be a sell out.
Friday we return to the beloved Big Apple, New York! We get down with our main man Nickodemus and DJ DRM @ the legendary Cielo club in the Meatpacking district. This is part of the Turntables on the Hudson monthly party series. Honored to make our debut at Cielo and re-unite with some of the funkiest cats in NY!. Saturday night we join our brother DJ Concerned at his weekly party in Manhattan at the Sunburnt Calf. Sunday we head down to Washington D.C. to make our third appearance at the timeless Eighteenth Street Lounge in Washington D.C.
Stay tuned for an Afrolicious set at Public Works holiday party on Saturday December 10th. Also we are thrilled to bring the Afrolicious full band to the Independent to support Sambada and their tasty blend of Afro-Brazilian, Funk, Reggae, Samba. These guys are great and we are so looking forward to an amazing show.
Also December 30th we are stoked to be a part of the Sno Globe festival out at Lake Tahoe. This festival features such acts as Bassnectar, Thievery Corporation, Pretty Lights, and Afrolicious!
