Naturally 7 sits at an unusual confluence of musical traditions. The New Yorkers’ roots are in a cappella gospel and its latter-day lineage, from doo-wop and barbershop to Boyz II Men and Jodeci. But they also picked up on human beatboxing, where a vocalist turns himself into a drum kit, and fuse the two forms.

They call the results “vocal play” – a form of unaccompanied music in which their astonishingly versatile voices provide not just the lyrics, melodies and harmonies, but every musical instrument in every song.

Defying convention and boundaries, GRAMMY winners Time for Three stand at the busy intersection of Americana, modern pop, and classical music. To experience Time for Three (TF3) live is to hear the various eras, styles, and traditions of Western music fold in on themselves and emerge anew. Bonded by an uncommon blend of instruments fused with voices, Charles Yang (violin, vocals), Nicolas “Nick” Kendall (violin, vocals), and Ranaan Meyer (double bass, vocals), have found a unique mode of expression to share with the world.

Winter Solstice Yoga Challenge
6:00 PM





 Limited to 12 people. First to RSVP get in!
Join us for an evening of practicing 108 sun salutations led by yoga instructor Jaime Lipka.
Sun Salutations heat the body and activate Prana (upward energy). Moving and creating the heat and Prana help move stuck energy and emotions. Resistance will appear during this practice. There will be a time where you start to wonder why you did it, but if you keep going, you will find a state of ease.
Instruction and modifications will be offered. Bear in mind, this practice is quite vigorous with an emphasis on strength and endurance.
Class is being offered free of charge.
Please bring a pantry item or toy to be donated to a family in need.
Let’s kick this winter off with an open heart & clear mind!
