Acclaimed composer and Mrudangam (South Indian percussion) artist Rajna Swaminathan’s roots run deep within the Indian music world and New York’s jazz scene. Termed “a vital new voice” by Pop Matters, and on the heels of her captivating new album Apertures, Rajna creates an improvisational evening that features an eclectic ensemble of musicians including the spellbinding vocals of Ganavya Doraiswamy with Utsav Lal (piano), Miles Okazaki (guitar), Darian Donovan Thomas (violin), Kalia Vandever (trombone) and Hannah Marks (bass).
Perfect for date night, or a night out with friends, the Apollo Music Café series has served as a launching pad for numerous artists including Grammy winners Tank & the Bangas, PJ Morton and Samara Joy showcasing their unique artistry in an intimate nightclub setting. The series features diverse performances across a myriad of genres (R&B, hip-hop, soul, jazz, latin, pop, funk and rock) and showcases artists drawn from the independent music scene who are making their mark in the industry. Doors open at 9pm; Showtime is 10pm. There is a $10 food/beverage minimum.
