The Bello Bash
Groove125 West 3rd Street, New York 10012
The Bello Bash brings Augie Bello to Groove for a live, collaborative jam session. Bello hosts the night as a saxophonist, vocalist, producer and songwriter, inviting other artists to join him onstage rather than presenting a fixed-band lineup. Expect a set shaped by musical exchanges and guest contributions, with Bello's blend of funk, pop, R&B, jazz and electronic music as its stated foundation.
New York-born and raised, Bello has built an audience through performance videos as well as his work as a multi-role musician. He has collaborated with Teddy Swims, Andy Grammer, James Blunt, Shaggy, Magic! and Darren Criss, and his credits include touring with Teddy Swims, opening for Zac Brown Band, and appearances at Madison Square Garden, Life is Beautiful and Music Midtown. His televised appearances include The Drew Barrymore Show and Good Morning America. The Bello Bash is presented as a recurring jam session under his lead, leaving room for the players who join him to steer the night's details in real time.
