CapitalBop Block Party @ Logan Fringe Arts Space
Aug 9 @ 1:00 PM – 6:00 PM
CapitalBop and Capital Fringe, two of D.C.’s most innovative presenters, will team up for an outdoor concert featuring a lineup of cutting-edge, dance-inducing bands at the nexus of jazz, electronic music and neo-soul. On August 9, CapitalBop and Capital Fringe present the second annual CapitalBop Block Party on the plaza outside Capital Fringe’s headquarters on Florida Avenue NE. 
 
World-famous jazz fusion star Marc Cary (#1 Rising Star Electric Keyboardist, 2014 DownBeat critics poll) will headline with his electronic/world/jazz project Rhodes Ahead. Also on the bill are two outstanding up-and-coming DMV bands: neo-soul heavy-hitters The Moment and hip-hop/electronic experimenters Nag Champa. The Block Party is the third installment of CapitalBop’s Traveling Loft series, presented with support from the DC Commisison on the Arts & Humanities.
Cary performed with Rhodes Ahead last summer at the first CapitalBop Block Party, held during the DC Jazz Fest at the Atlantic Plumbing Lot near U Street. Since then, Rhodes Ahead has received a flood of acclaim around its recently released album, Rhodes Ahead, Vol. 2 (Motéma)The record was hailed by theGuardian as “a bracing blend of old and new steered by a strong musical character [and] laid-back cool,” and the New York Times marveled: “There isn’t much in the modern-jazz-musician tool kit that Marc Cary hasn’t mastered, but he has a particular subspecialty in the area of groove.”
For next month’s Block Party, Cary – a D.C. native who grew up playing go-go before relocating to New York and becoming a world-renowned jazz musician – teamed up with CapitalBop to assemble the lineup. Cary and the CapitalBop team chose two fresh bands gaining renown in the D.C. area. The Moment is a neo-soul group playing original compositions and renditions of pop hits, led by drummer Domo “Youngman” Lee. Nag Champa is the brainchild of D.C.-based beat producer Jamal Gray and drummer Allen Jones. In just over a year, the group has accrued a devoted following among D.C.’s most passionate music listeners.

The Block Party will take place in a warm, Sunday-afternoon setting in the courtyard at the Logan Fringe Arts Space, with drinks served at the bar. A special bourbon-and-bitters cocktail, “Honey, I’m Home,” will be available at just $9 for a pint glass. It will be an energizing, dance-inducing day of music—and an exciting way to spend a summer afternoon, whether folks are coming from brunch, from church, or just rolling out of bed.

Plus: Marc Cary will lead a free go-go/jazz master class for youth at Union Arts on the morning of Aug. 9. Info on that program is available here, and it will run from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM.
