This is the third installment of A Musical Feast, a music series dedicated to showcasing the variety of New York sound.
A Musical Feast recently visited the Shrine in Harlem—a world music venue and restaurant founded in 2007 where funk LPs line the walls and the sounds of reggae, soul, jazz, rock, or afrobeat play every night. Taking its name from Fela Kuti’s legendary Nigerian music club, the Shrine has gone from being just a vision of its Burkinabe founders to a being one of Harlem's main musical hubs.
