TVD Recommends: Bluebrain’s (Final) Boombox Walk

When I think of synchronized music playing in the middle of the street, I think of Fred Astaire “Dancing in the Rain” or that one scene from this movie. DC duo Ryan and Hays Holladay of Bluebrain have been assembling crowds to make their music ring out on the town in real life with their two Boombox walks. If you have never been to one before, now is the time as the third (and final) Boombox Walk is this Saturday, January 14th at 3 pm.

The first Boombox Walk two years ago encouraged participants to bring their cassette boomboxes to Dupont Circle with each person given a cassette with a different section from the same piece of music to play in tandem, creating one large symphony of song. This year, things will be shaken up a bit.

Because January tends to be chilly, this time around the walk will be held indoors at the US Botanic Garden and contributors are asked to bring any kind of device they wish, whether it be cassette player, Walkman, or iPod enabled music device.

If you are ready to join the ranks and get your groove on, Bluebrain asks that you RSVP ahead of time to the free event via email at bluebrainmusic@gmail.com so that they can bring enough CD’s, cassettes, or e-mail you an mp3. With it being their final Boombox affair, Bluebrain promises it will be the most raucous one yet!
