Michael Mwenso closes his residency by leading an Ancestral Communal Listening Experience and bringing Mwenso and the Shakes — his troupe of global artists immigrating from each corner of the globe — back to New York City for one special night!

About Ancestral Communal Listening Experiences
Ancestral Communal Listening Experiences are a series of listening sessions of Gospel, Blues, Jazz, and other Black Roots music forms by guiding the audience through thematic sessions and co-discovering the nutrients that can continuously feed the soul hidden in the music.
