Musical Interlude: When the Old Time Festival was first announced, I was happy to see that Jake Blount's name was on the list, as I'm quite a fan of his. Then I was sad to see his name gone from the lineup...oh well, guess he had to cancel...

Then when I get there, they introduce a brand new group, New Dangerfield....featuring Jake Blount! Woohoo! Now it all made sense. New Dangerfield is an all-black string band, looking to uncover the history of black string band and black artists in old time music.

"Put No Walls Around Your Garden," performed by New Dangerfield.

Musical Interlude: Jake Blount's recent CD is a fascinating concept album about the religious practices of a group of Black climate refugees after a series of future environmental disasters. Yup, this is Afrofuturist music, although not utopian. Blount is a great performer; I've seen him live a number of times.

"Didn't It Rain," performed by Jake Blount.

Closing out a rather overstuffed weekend back in Manhattan for an early set with Jake Blount and Mali Obomsawin. Their new album is a heady meeting of the minds and they're sounding equally heavy here at Joe's Pub.

And as far as the last 24 hours are concerned, my cup runneth over.
