No-Class Reunion: Brooklyn Beat Film Fundraiser Concert
Indie rock lovers rejoice! A “Brooklyn Beat” class reunion is in the works. Park Slope will once again bear witness to a diverse lineup of talented bands converging for a one-night-only fundraising concert on Saturday, September 14 at Young Ethel’s.
This electrifying event will showcase the unique sounds of Frank’s Museum, Hari Karaoke Trio of Doom, Medicine Sunday, M. West of The Original Rays, Robert Box of Chemical Wedding, The Squirrels from Hell and Kenny & the Eggplants, each representing a different facet of the borough’s Indie golden age of the late 1980s and early ’90s. From the dark, powerful rhythms of Hari Karaoke to the broadly appealing melodies of the Eggplants, there’s something for every musical palate.
This musical extravaganza is the climax event for a crowdfunding campaign for the upcoming documentary film “Before it was Cool: The Brooklyn Beat from Lauterbach’s”. The event will include the public premiere of the documentary’s official trailer and a teaser reel for industry insiders.
