globalFEST – Diverse Music Fest

Posted by Karla Dimmucio on January 2, 2014 in News

globalFEST (gF) began in NYC in 2003 as a creatively curated bright spot for global music lovers in the dark days of early January. Over its first decade, gF’s groundbreaking annual 3 stage, 12 band showcase/festival has become one of the most catalytic world music events in North America, coinciding with the Association of Performing Arts Presenters (APAP’s) annual conference. The premier gateway for emerging and established artists, gF has provided more than one hundred and twenty groups- from around the world and from our own backyard- access to stages across the continent.

globalFEST is also a party, turning winter doldrums into a multi-continent romp at one of downtown New York’s most historic venues. The festival spotlights artists who represent diverse global styles, from traditional and folk to hybrid acts that incorporate classical, rock, jazz, electronic dance music and hip-hop influences.
