This is a free, unticketed event.

 

Ladies of Midnight Blue are an Afro-Latin percussion & brass duet comprised of Hannabiell Sanders and Yilis del Carmen Suriel. They create a powerful and upbeat fusion of rhythms, weaving combinations of melodic percussion, brass, vocal chants, and mbira.

 

Ladies of Midnight Blue have performed and facilitated workshops and residencies all over the world. They believe in everyday activism, which they see as a commitment to work towards equality and justice in all aspects of their lives and for their communities.

 

Hannabiell & Yilis are the co-founders and Directors of Harambee Pasadia CIC. Harambee in Swahili means ‘let’s pull together’ and Pasadia in Spanish means ‘to spend the day.’ They produce Harambee Pasadia: Afro Fusion Arts festival, a 4-day family camping extravaganza which hosts world renowned artists, practitioners, and foods of fusions found in the African diaspora.
