Shows We Love :: Jose James, Blackmagic NYC

Our friends at Giant Step bring you the last live performance of Blackmagic by Jose James this Friday, December 3rd along with TK Wonder, Ben Perowsky MSO and Ge-ology at LIttlefield in Brooklyn. After a year of spinning the Brownswood Sessions with this crew, one thing is certain – this is an evening you don’t want to miss. Take a look at the Axis profile we shot with Jose for Blackmagic here. There’s also a great video of him performing at our Friends We Love Festival in NYC, in case you need more convincing. To top it, we’re also including a live recording by the good folks at KCRW with Jose earlier this year. – Moni Pineda
