Larry Mcdonald music Party Reggae Ska Things to do in Brooklyn

Yup, its hard to believe but Rocksteady 7’s own Larry McDonald will be turning 80 this June!

Larry has had a long and varied career so far. With early gigs with Lennie Hibbert, then Carlos Malcolm’s Afro Jamaicans, playing on a slew of classic reggae tracks in late 1960s and early 1970s, playing with Boris Gardiner Happening, then moving to the states and playing with Taj Mahal, Gil Scott-Heron, and most recently, Lee Scratch Perry. He has played percussion on literally 1000s of tracks at this point!

He is a founding member of Rocksteady 7 and has been at the core of its sound.

We will be doing a special concert for his birthday on June 10th! Expect special guest musician appearances and renditions of some classic tracks Larry has played on over the years!

$8 cover. 2 sets starting around 9:30.

DJ One Hundred Decibels will be spinning classic ska, reggae, and whatever else strikes his fancy!
