Recent collaborators Helado Negro (Roberto Lange), This Is the Kit (Kate Stables), and Becca Stevens add to Sō Percussion's string of successful vocal partnerships which have included Dawn Upshaw, Shara Nova, Shodekeh Talifero, and their GRAMMY Award-winning album with Caroline Shaw. Helado Negro and Kate joined Sō Percussion in 2025 to create an evening-length program of all new songs for Sō's two-week sold-out residency at The Brooklyn Academy of Music. Both songwriters organically co-created music with Sō that is filled with infectious jams and touching songs. Helado Negro’s latin-influenced electronic sounds and Kate Stables’ sophisticated English/Irish alt-folk charm fuse seamlessly with Sō Percussion’s percussive post-minimalism. Becca Stevens adds her signature 2x GRAMMY-nominated blend of folk, jazz, indie, and classical to this lineup.

Praised by The New York Times as "one of the most profound choreographers of his modern dance generation," Ronald K. Brown blends African dance with contemporary choreography, music, and spoken word, to tell stories that illuminate fundamental aspects of the human experience.
Founded in 1985 and based in Brooklyn, New York, EVIDENCE, A Dance Company, uses movement as a way to reinforce the importance of community in African-American culture and to acquaint audiences with the beauty of African dance forms and rhythms.
In the four decades since the company’s founding, Brown has created over 30 works for EVIDENCE, and has garnered commissions from Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Jacob’s Pillow, The Kennedy Center, The Joyce Theater, Ballet Hispanico, Malpaso Dance Company, Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Ensemble, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company, Jennifer Muller/The Works, Jeune Ballet d’Afrique Noire, and Harlem Stage, to name a few.
Today the company tours extensively in the US, reaching annual audiences of more than 20,000. Through a profoundly unique repertory of dance works and community-based, intergenerational education programs, Brown’s work is designed to empower, educate and connect. An advocate for the growth of the African American dance community, Brown is instrumental in encouraging young dancers to choreograph and to develop careers in dance.
