Often referred to as “The Genius”, Ray Charles Robinson was affectionately known among friends and fellow musicians as “Brother Ray”. Ranked number 2 on the Rolling Stone’s “Top 100 Greatest Singers of All Time” list, Ray Charles was most well known for pioneering the soul music genre in the 1950s by combining rhythm and blues, blues and gospel, and contributing to the genres of country and pop music. “Brother Ray” left a strong musical legacy, influencing many individuals and musicians, including Oakland’s very own, Bryan Dyer.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
