Oct 3rd: Toshi Reagon and BigLovely
Oct 4th: Toshi Reagon: Sacred Music show with Bernice Johnson Reagon
"Most people would just tell you that to truly understand how Toshi can seamlessly transcend all of these genres, you have to check her out live. "Oh, that voice...devotees know they've born witness to one of the great voices of this generation."
-Village Voice
Toshi Reagon calls to mind classic R&B artists, like Stevie Wonder or Prince, and old school rock groups like Led Zeppelin; she can take any style, update it, and make it her own with incredible ease. Despite (or because of) her genre-bending, Toshi fits comfortably on a stage with any of the Lilith artists, at Carnegie Hall, or in a dirty rock club. Toshi's amazing band includes some of New York's finest musicians, Judith Casselberry, Fred Cash, Catherine Russell , Adam Widoff, and Robert Burke, collectively known as Big Lovely. Of her innovative rock crossed with soul-influenced, blues-tinged folk, Interview magazine raved, "Anyone who thinks rock is a dead medium need only listen to the music of Toshi Reagon and her almighty band Big Lovely.
