DJ Rekha's Basement Bhangra Beyond — Flushing Meadows

• Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, Queens • FREE

In 1997, DJ Rekha started Basement Bhangra at SOB's in SoHo. She was told not to play too much Punjabi music. She ignored that. The party ran for 20 years. M.I.A.'s first US performance was there. The New York Times named her Bhangra's Ambassador.

Saturday July 18, Basement Bhangra Beyond comes to Flushing Meadows for free, with Jaz Dhami, Mitika Kanwar, and Babbulicious. Bring someone who hasn't heard of her.
