Description | |
Genre: Hip-Hop, Rap Address: The Square at 2+U / 1201 Second Ave. Chimurenga Renaissance is a Zimbabwean-centered hip-hop project formed in 2012. Squishy, wet synth lines burble and wheeze against the organic sounds of mbira thumb pianos and ngoma drums evoking both urban America and sub-Saharan Africa. The Downtown Seattle Association is proud to present Downtown Summer Sounds, our summer concert series that has been bringing free live, local music to downtown Seattle for 45 years. We’re hosting more than 30 outdoor concerts across downtown from July 5-Sept. 10 — check out the full lineup! The Downtown Summer Sounds concert series is funded by the Metropolitan Improvement District ratepayers and presented by Amazon. |
