CYCLEDELIC

Celebrate Bike to Work Week, have some fun, and support a worthwhile cause. World Community Bikes will be hosting, Cycledelic, a fast-peddling evening of dance and entertainment on Saturday, June 7th at the Lower Native Sons’ Hall.

Artists will include acoustic guitarist Amber McAlonan and her original alternative folk style, and the newly-formed three piece band Booty and the Hofish, whose style can be described as a fusion of bluegrass and hip hop.

The dance portion of the evening, featuring DJs of varying styles, will begin with local DJ Upsidedowninja and his down tempo, jazzy style of spinning. Next up will be Scotty Soulshock’s hip hop scratch and Glenn Wildes’ mix of styles. Adil Amlani, originally from Montreal, will perform urban house mixes to round out the night.

Tickets are $10.00 each, with a limited number at $5.00 for low-income or students and will be available at the Freakin’ Coffeeshop on Rosewall Crescent or at the door.

There will be door prizes, food and a no-host bar. Doors open at 8:00 pm.

Profits from the evening will help send a container of bicycles collected by World Community Bikes to Nicaragua.

The group would like to thank the entertainers, who are all local, for volunteering their time and talent.
