Each performance will be recorded in late December in front of the sites of former iconic NY music venues: Max’s Kansas City, CBGB’s, and Mount Morris Park, site of the Harlem Cultural Festival. These videos will then be displayed in the HERE lobby throughout the duration of the festival. Each public performance will also be live streamed via Facebook live and projected in the HERE lobby in real time.
