Sammy Rae & The Friends with special guest Melt
About This Event
Sammy Rae & The Friends, joined by special guest Melt, play the Brooklyn Paramount. Sammy Rae's Brooklyn-based jazz-pop outfit built its reputation through a live-first approach that emphasizes tight ensemble playing and quick shifts in tone. Melt brings a rock/pop sensibility rooted in the early-1990s Japanese underground, favoring speed, distortion and percussive phrasing; both acts prioritize precision and rhythmic drive over spectacle.
