Friday, May 23
Doors: 7 PM
Jungle Fire: 8 PM
LayeRhythm: 10 PM
Join us for an evening celebrating music and club culture, featuring artists from the music and street dance scenes in L.A., NYC, and Montreal. This year, Tap Water Jam is stepping it up with musical discoveries, exchanges, and cyphers that set the stage for the Tandem Carré Battle on Saturday, May 24th.
Kicking off the night is Jungle Fire (L.A.), a powerhouse 10-piece band blending Latin funk and Afrobeat—a group originally created for a breaking jam. We're thrilled to welcome back LayeRhythm (NYC), bringing their signature jam session of live music and dance, featuring four musicians, one MC, and dancers. Expect freestyle-based performances between musicians, emcees, and street/club dance practitioners. DJ Lexis will be spinning gems throughout the night, with Preach as host, creating the perfect vibe for Tap Water Jam's signature dance-filled soirée.
