The Black Box Sessions: Freedom In Blues

In Honor of Juneteenth

On June 21st, The Black Box becomes more than a listening room, it becomes sacred ground.

Freedom In Blues is an intimate musical journey honoring Juneteenth, the day freedom was announced, the day truth caught up with history, the day resilience sang louder than chains.

Through blues, jazz, gospel, and story, we gather to remember. To reflect. To celebrate the unbreakable spirit woven into our music.

The blues was never just sorrow; it was survival. It was coded language. It was faith under pressure. It was joy that refused to die.

This afternoon will move through the lineage of sound that carried our ancestors forward and still carries us today. Songs of struggle. Songs of triumph. Songs that whisper and songs that wail.

In the intimacy of The Black Box, every note is personal. Every breath is shared. Every silence is intentional.

This is not just a performance. It is a listening experience. A remembering. A celebration of freedom still unfolding.

Join me and Soulful Stew as we honor Juneteenth the way our people have always honored freedom, through music.
