Hola fam! Juggling tons of amazing things in my life right now! Been vibing on this project for over a month now and finally felt compelled to write and share this energy.

VOL II SOUL event in June, I was turned on to the MJFELA project between Rich and Mark Hines (Marksmen Guerilla Productions) Here's a taste of MJ and Fela tastefully mashed using video and these 2 dance floor gems! THRILLER ZOMBIE!

Tuesday March 16, Bemba Soul Tribe and Wax Poetics present World Groove at Momo’s, with performances by Chico Mann, Ocote Soul Sound System, Ancient Astronauts, DJs Pleasuremaker & Señor Oz with John Speice, DJ Chorizo Funk, and Austin Piazzolla Quintet.



World Groove is a collaboration between three of Austin’s hottest promoters; Brandon Badillo of Bemba Entertainment, Scott Romero of Soul of the Boot Entertainment and Jeff Strange of StrangeTribe Productions. Together they form a music production powerhouse called Bemba Soul Tribe. Their inaugural music showcase will debut on March 16th during SXSW. World Groove expands on Badillo’s established weekly World Music Night Series at the legendary live music club, Momo’s. The intentions of Bemba Soul Tribe is to create a monolithic showcase that will rock Austin collectively and plant a seed that will inevitably spout and flourish into one of Austin’s most dynamic music production partnerships.

The show begins at 8:30 p.m. and goes until 2 a.m. at Momo’s, located at 618 W 6th St. There is a $5 cover from 8:30-9:30 and $10 after 9:30 for 21 and older, for everyone under 21 the cover is $15. This event will feature Maker’s Mark drink specials all night, guest appearances and giveaways!

World Groove is partnered with Wax Poetics (NYC) & sponsored by Dubspot, Heavy Rotation, ESL Music, Fusicology, KUT 90.5 FM, & Todo Austin.
