Summer Music in BIP 2022: Bomba Yo

Thursday, August 11th, 2022 at 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM

Free

For the second summer FBIP brings music to the beautiful waterfront in Bushwick Inlet Park with our Summer Music in BIP 2022 series. Come take in a skyline river sunset on the 86 Kent shoreline esplanade while absorbing great musical vibes from multiple genres.

We are winding way up with Bombay Yo for our final El Puente CADRE show!

Bomba Yo ignites the ancestral rhythms of Bomba, an African derived music and dance tradition developed in Puerto Rico. The synergy of call and response singing, drumming and dance provide the foundation for a dynamic interplay between the solo drummer and dancer. Bomba Yo stirs the soul in a way that only music and dance can to uplift and celebrate our deeper humanity. BombaYo creates an intergenerational and participatory experience that honors people of all ages and abilities.
