The Black Soul Experience
Groove125 West 3rd Street, New York 10012
The Black Soul Experience comes to Groove for a late-night set led by host and bandleader Antwon Robinson, a veteran Groove musician, with a backing band drawn from New York City musicians. The show is billed as a high-powered live experience built to keep the room dancing, moving through R&B, funk, soul, soca, hip-hop, reggae, and house. Expect a band-led program that treats those styles as part of one continuous night rather than a single-genre set.
The available information identifies Antwon Robinson as the evening’s host and bandleader, and as a veteran musician at Groove. It also describes the performers behind him as among New York City’s finest musicians, but does not name the individual players or provide further biographical detail about Robinson or The Black Soul Experience. What is clear is the format: a live ensemble carrying a wide-ranging dance-oriented repertoire, with Robinson directing the performance from the bandstand.
