Kalu James on kickstarterThis Friday (June 15) we are inviting our Austin friends to a free special performance by Kalu James.  Come enjoy adult beverages & snacks and show your support for DMI and this exciting Nigerian singer/songwriter as he previews his upcoming project.


"Some Sort of Fusion" is a creative project where he and his band are deliberately trying to create a fusion between the acoustic-stripped down songs and full band-soul/blues/folk/rock induced tracks. This project will be a 2 album (acoustic and band) release.

Where:  Office of Mark McCrimmon, 704 West 9th Street, Austin
