Sol Power with Lil’ Dave (IllVibe), Sat 8/4

Gigs September 2nd, 2010

Please get acquainted with our special guest for this Saturday. He’s an old friend, great selector and resident at Philly’s Basement Soul, which is a cousin to Sol Power.

Listen to Lil’ Dave at work!


Live at Basement Soul by lildave

His first solo release also makes babies do a combination of rumba and samba. I think this dance is called ’sumba’, which should be the name of his second solo release.

Afro.Latin.Brazilian.House.Disco.Funk
With your favorite Sol Power All-stars:
Stylus, Meistro, Deep Sang and special guest:

…Philly’s Lil’ Dave (illVibe Collective)

Come sweat to the rhythms of Cuba, Brazil, Puerto Rico & West Africa.
