water riot (in beta) on campus!

water riot (in beta) at the University of Illinois, Chicago Latino Cultural Center

I was so happy The UIC Freshwater Lab invited us to campus a few weeks ago to share water riot.  This was a kick-off event for their fall semester and gave me some practice hosting the live-excerpt-performance version of the show.

Performers: Genevieve VenJohnson, Jasmine Robertson

Band: Steve Corley and Decoteau Black

with: Derek Lee McPhatter (Host/Lyricist) & Mike Przygoda (Composer / Bandleader)

Thank you to the teams at the Freshwater Lab and Latino Cultural Center who made it possible. And an extra special thanks to:
