POSTunderground

BLUES & SOUL @ POSTunderground brings an evening of deep groove, improvisation, rhythm, and Black musical traditions to POSTUnderground on Friday, June 12 beginning at 7:30pm; featuring three distinct performances rooted in Soul, Blues, Jazz, Funk, Hip-Hop, and Afrobeat.

Opening the evening at 7:30pm is ORDER of SONANCE; a rotating Jazz-Funk collective featuring musicians who also collaborate with WAMPTRONICA on recordings and live performances. Blending improvisation, layered rhythm, and groove-forward compositions, ORDER of SONANCE sets the tone with adventurous musicianship and immersive sonic textures.

At 8:30pm, The ZYG 808 Experience takes the stage; combining Jazz, Soul, Hip-Hop, Afrobeat, and experimental groove culture into a dynamic live performance driven by rhythm, movement, and improvisational energy.

Closing the night is the MWALIM Trio featuring Mwalim DaPhunkee Professor on vocals, guitar, and keys; alongside Richard Johnson on bass and The ZYG 808 on drums. The trio delivers a powerful blend of Blues, Soul, Jazz, Funk, and underground groove traditions through storytelling, soulful improvisation, deep rhythms, and electrifying musicianship rooted in both Black musical tradition and contemporary artistry.

Admission is free.
