Multicultural music collective Lady Moon & The Eclipse layers their soaring vocal textures over contemporary R&B and Afrobeat-influenced rhythms to deliver “celestial magic” (The Berkshire Edge). Ngonda Badila (Lady Moon) fronts the seven-piece ensemble founded in Hudson, NY. Catksill’s Kendra McKinley, with a voice like tuned honey, fronts a dynamic band with a style that braids sensuality, levity, and polish. GLOBAL | LOCAL: Musical Worlds Meet at PS21 Our new season-long series features musicians from across the world and from our backyard. The series examines the intersection of two ideas: the continuing need to open our minds to international art and perspectives, and the growing importance of local community, place, and togetherness in an increasingly decentralized and digitized world. PS21 resides in a hotbed of creativity—the Hudson Valley—and many of its finest musicians will be presented alongside world-class international acts in this summer-long series.
