LEGACY! UNFOLDED | Jamila Woods at The Garaghty

Live Event Production

Stage visual designs by VAM STUDIO

Jamila Woods offers a stripped down look at her latest acclaimed project with Legacy! Legacy! Unfolded. The personal examination of her acclaimed studio album will expand on its tribute to the black artists that have shaped Woods’ life and art. Woods will perform in The Geraghty, exploring the album augmented by film 360 degree collage footage prduced by VAM STUDIO, audio clips, photographs and new commentary.

“As if to illustrate the endless and numerous facets of Blackness in real time, Woods staged her Red Bull performance in the round. Her five-piece band and three backing vocalists surrounded Woods in the center. Visual projections by VAM Studio were similarly organized above the stage, showing archival videos of Jean-Michel Basquiat avoiding an interviewer's probe on what makes him angry, and Eartha Kitt laughing wildly at the idea of compromising herself for the love and validation of a male. These served as introductions and inspirations for Woods' music.”
