Sunset Concerts: Delgres
Skirball Cultural Center
DJ set
Discover the musical descendants of Louis Delgrès—the nineteenth-century leader of a slave rebellion against Napoleon Bonaparte—in this dynamic trio. Born in a Parisian suburb to Caribbean parents, frontman Pascal Danaë—who has performed with Harry Belafonte, Peter Gabriel, Gilberto Gil, and Youssou N’ Dour—founded Delgres with drummer Baptiste Brondy and sousaphone player Rafgee. Their bluesy Caribbean roots music evokes the long-lost, drifting souls of New Orleans.
Arrive early to listen to a DJ set by dublab’s Rani de Leon!
