Philly musicians perform to benefit CAMP SOJOURNER, GIRLS’ LEADERSHIP CAMP, a nonprofit leadership program for Philly girls ages 8-16, offering affordable summer camp and year-round activities.
Featuring:
BETHLEHEM ROBERSON, acapella vocalist blending her voice with powerful rhythms.
JOY IKE, singer/songwriter, pianist and vocalist blending elements of pop, soul, and folk in her music; her percussive piano-playing and soaring vocals give homage to her African upbringing.
UNIDOS DA FILADELFIA SAMBA GROUP, a community-based samba school whose mission is to spread the joy and excitement of Brazilian percussion.
Performance by our very own Sojourners!
Other special guests.
Sojo Groove Night is happening at THE ROTUNDA (4014 Walnut Street) in Philadelphia, a community-gathering place that is fueled by the belief that art is a catalyst for social change.
