A Winning Warm-Up For a Sizzling Summer
We’re thrilled to present the long–awaited pre-summer issue of BK Roads,our all music, all Brooklyn webzine, spotlighting three multi-talented Brooklyn artists. Although their music is from three different genres and generations, Susan Collins, Carolann Solebello and Okai share the common thread of finding their creative muse right here in our home borough.
In a year that has seen Brooklynites face far too many life challenges, from the ravages of nature to economic hardship, music artists continue to inspire us, and give us respite and release.
Brooklyn now abounds with great music, playing host to the second Great Googa Mooga Festival, the 20th Annual Red Hook Fest, the Open Space Alliance Concerts in Williamsburg Park, Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, Seaside Summer Concert Series in Coney Island and Celebrate Brooklyn! in Prospect Park. There are also scores of venues, ranging from intimate music rooms such as Sycamore and Jalopy to the Barclays Center, where this year’s MTV Video Awards will take place. The list continues to grow and show that Brooklyn is not only home to the stars, but also a hotbed of new music and emerging artists.
BK Roads is all about the music and wants you to be part of the excitement!
