Thursday, April 15: Dark Time Sunshine

The Royal Lounge

By Jose Gutierrez Jr., M.Ed. on April 14, 2010

Tonight Dark Time Sunshine (Onry Ozzborn and Zavala) celebrate the release of the group's highly anticipated sophomore album, Vessel, on Sake Four Records. The show will be your first chance to cop Vessel, featuring Aesop Rock, JFK, XP and more, as the record drops officially on April 20.  Ozzborn (of the famed Oldominion and Grayskul crews) lends vocals, and respected Chicago producer Zavala concocts the tracks.  Also rocking the mic tonight at The Royal will be AKA (fresh off his thrashing victory at the second Go Hard or Go Home MC Battle), Q-Storm and Simon Calcavecchia. DJ Deadbeat is spinning.  Finally, Tac-Town B-Boy crew, The Dance Brooms, will get it on the floor providing a fix for your B-Boy/Girl withdrawals. -
