Ticklish?
The reggae warfare of Ticklah Vs. Axelrod (same man) continues on Wednesday, Nov 14 at B.B. King’s in Times Square. Ticklah’s sound cooks up ska melodies with hints of Latin salsa and dub, which have enticed the likes of British based cultural connoisseurs Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson, Lily Allen, and Robbie Williams. And as with all reggae shows; it’s a family affair. Look out for appearances on stage by artists including Chico Mann, members of the Afro-beat group, Antibalas, Tamar-kali and Ras I-Ray. The Easy Star All-Stars will be taking the stage after Ticklah in the only New York City stop during their 2007 world tour. Known for memorable takes on Pink Floyd and Radiohead covers, the all-stars will be playing original songs slated for release on their next EP due January 2008, including track “Mi Sonsito” featuring Mayra Vega. Tickets for the show are $16 in advance and $18 at the door. Doors open at 6pm, and the show starts at 8pm. There’s only standing and prancing room, but all ages are welcome.
