The best things to do in NYC this weekend: January 13-15
#2 @globalFEST
https://www.timeout.com/newyork/things-to-do/things-to-do-in-nyc-this-weekend
This annual international-music showcase takes over three stages with represented genres including Cambodian, Moroccan, Spanish Flameno, Tropical Latin and much more.
This year is the 20th anniversary of GlobalFEST, which will happen across three stages at Lincoln Center’s newly-renovated David Geffen Hall on Sunday, January 15
The cultural scramble extends to Bnat el Houariyat (showstopping trance music and dance from North Africa), Dengue Fever (a California band indebted to Cambodian psychedelia), the Legendary Ingramettes (deep-rooted Virginia gospel), and Moonlight Benjamin (Haitian rock). As always, the night flips conventional expectations of a concert—a person goes not to recognize a favored song but, rather, to hear a noise that they did not know existed.
