From a live webstream at The Avalon Lounge.
Jak Lizard, LEÓN, Yan Ley, and Teacher Maria perform. WGXC will have a webcast of the entire show at wgxc.org/listen and will broadcast the show on 90.7-FM.
You only need to catch a glimpse of a Jak Lizard performance to understand what the inventive New York songwriter is all about. Jak Lizard's world is a vibrant kaleidoscope of sounds, shapes, colors and words to match his exuberant stage presence and genre-hopping sound. Of Lizard, Elevator proclaims, "Jak effortlessly breathes new life into old-school styles with his passionate and powerful delivery that pairs perfectly with a refined lyricism that conveys wisdom beyond his years." This lyricism is backed by an airtight live rhythm section that brings an irrepressible groove to this multifaceted style that blends jazz, hip-hop, and soul influences. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fm72Fro3zf4
