Beyond what we can see, can we be? Jomama Jones returns with celebrated pianist Samora Pinderhughes, a stellar band, vocalists, and a few special guests to investigate the heart of our matter. Singing original songs, Jomama explores the signs and signifiers found in the darkest part of the night that send us toward the blush of dawn. Pinder hughes’s searching and emotive arrangements will call the flowers to blooming. This night? Black Light! 

Daniel Alexander Jones’ work, best described as Afromysticism, has been explored through 20 years of dynamic interdisciplinary practice, and is a significant contributor to the development of The Theatrical Jazz Aesthetic. Jomama Jones, Jones’ alter-ego created in collaboration with Dr. Bobby Halvorson, performs the show Radiate, which premiered at Soho Rep and has played in Minneapolis, Austin, Los Angeles and Boston. Radiate was a critics’ pick of the New York Times, Time Out New York, and The New Yorker. Jones was named a recipient of the Doris Duke Artist Award in 2015, received the prestigious Alpert Award in the Arts, and was an inaugural Creative Capital Artist.
