Gig Alert: Kamasi Washington at Brooklyn Bowl
Tickets: $40, 21 and over, show at 8:30 PM SOLD OUT, but limited tickets available at the door

Sax player Kamasi Washington has primarily played a distinctive, personal brand of jazz, but his highest profile work has been with rapper Kendrick Lamar. Kamasi attracted critical raves for his ambitious triple-album set called, appropriately, The Epic, back in 2015, and he continues to work without regard for the usual genre boundaries. He and the New York-based Afrobeat group known as the Budos Band will be sharing the stage at Brooklyn Bowl tonight.
