The concert will be announced a month before the event, and ticket sales will begin at that time.
A DJ and other live bands will be playing during the festival and before the film screenings.
DJ Cato Congrí Herring
Music has been referred to as being many things; life, a weapon, the answer and even as a sanctuary to name a few and in the masterful hands of DJ CATO (a.k.a Congrí) they become all of these things.
On any given night throughout New York City Cato can be found executing his craft on eager ears and feet. Part of his allure as a dj is that he is extremely adaptable to any situation and crowd and well armed with keen music knowledge and understanding as well as impeccable timing. So rather than limiting himself to any one specific genre Cato allows his listeners ears, minds and feet to travel to far flung places. Whether it's a samba school in Rio de Janeiro, a dancehall in Brixton, a block party in Spanish Harlem or a nightclub or lounge just about anywhere he is comfortably in the pocket.
Old Death Whisper…a recipe handed down to Grandaddy Jake Santee back in 1878 by an Indian chief of an unknown tribe in northern California, was 194 proof moonshine; which was believed to give immortality. It’s rumored that Jake is still alive today due to his frequent use of Old Death Whisper. Old Death Whisper is also a band of gentlemen playing and writing original country music from the banks of the Big Wood River in central Idaho. Like their previous incarnation, The Damphools, Old Death Whisper sticks to a simple philosophy. That being, the music should reflect the bands integrity, its weaknesses and its strengths. The sound is loose and raucous with elements of the muddy delta, the dusty Texas deserts, and the mountains of the west and the dark forests of Appalachia. Sometimes high in octane like Jake Santee’s moonshine, Old Death Whisper feels like it could give you immortality. And then with the next song, they can drag you through the mud of some dark swamp and leave you for dead (and loving it). The live shows are full of piss and vinegar and guaranteed to get you and your gal dancing. Rockers, kickers, cowboy angels, old timers, greasers and punks alike will enjoy Old Death Whisper and their brand of rural junkyard folk and cut throat honky tonk. ..
