You’re welcome to celebrate Bike to Work Week, have some fun and support a worthwhile cause.
World
Community Bikes will host Cycledelic, a fast-peddling evening of dance
and entertainment on Saturday, June 7 at the Lower Native Sons’ Hall.
Artists
will include acoustic guitarist Amber McAlonan and her original
alternative-folk style, and the newly formed three-piece band Booty and
the Hofish, whose style can be described as a fusion of bluegrass and
hip hop.
The dance portion of the evening, featuring
DJs of varying styles, will begin with local DJ Upsidedowninja and his
down-tempo, jazzy style of spinning. Next up will be Scotty Soulshock’s
hip hop scratch and Glenn Wildes’ mix of styles. Adil Amlani,
originally from Montreal, will perform urban house mixes to round out
the night.
Tickets are $10 each, with a limited
number at $5 for low-income or students, and will be available at the
Freakin’ Coffeeshop on Rosewall Crescent or at the door. There will be
door prizes, food and a no-host bar.
Doors open at 8 p.m.
Profits
from the evening will help send a container of bicycles collected by
World Community Bikes to Nicaragua. The group would like to thank the
entertainers, who are all local, for volunteering their time and talent.
