Tiny Desk Meets AFROPUNK is the electrifying kick-off to AFROPUNK’s “Black Spring“ festival. The virtual celebration, hosted by Jorge “Gitoo“ Wright, features performances from ChocQuibTown, Calma Carmona, Luedji Luna and Nenny. AFROPUNK, born out of a 2003 short film by the same name, is an international movement and music festival centered on Black exploration and rebellion. Starting as a way to create space for the unacknowledged presence and influence of Black culture in a predominantly white punk scene, AFROPUNK has since evolved into a distinct, multi-genre experience.
“Black Spring“ was created to spotlight outstanding talent in Afro-Latine and Afro-Caribbean music across the globe. The Tiny Desk Meets AFROPUNK program aims for the same. The showcase’s four artists have come to the Tiny Desk to honor their homes and celebrate the art their heritage has inspired. Learn more about them below.
