The Silk Road, Gene Lee, Darek Mazzone & Wesley Holmes
CARAVAN is inspired by the true-life historic Silk Road that wound its way through Europe, Asia, and Africa. Along this route, there was a mingling of cultures and backgrounds that provided a platform for them to interact, come together, and contribute to a newly created global market. We have the same vision to create a global connection, this time through music. What will you hear at a CARAVAN night? This show is an open-format show where each DJ can play any genre of music they’d like. There’s only one rule: they must incorporate instruments, languages, and sounds from around the world throughout their set. This creates the feeling of traveling through the world together as one Caravan of people. World music is genre-fluid & promotes inclusivity, accessibility, and overall respect for one another. You don’t need to know the instruments or the language to understand its meaning and appreciate its beauty. This appreciation sparks cultural curiosity and investigation. It’s a concept that brings us all together, and it’s a dream we want everyone to feel included in.
CARAVAN returns this August with a special lineup of Artists representing two pillars of the Seattle dance music scene and one who has been at the forefront of bringing Seattle sounds from around the world for decades. It promises to be a night of celebration and inspiration. So, who’s ready to hop on the CARAVAN with us?
