Carol Lockridge had the Mojo Working

Work­ing Mojo at the Spo­ken­Word Cafe

Carol Lock­ridge and Friends all the way live

The Novem­ber Cafe proved a steamy mix with Carol Lock­ridge belt­ing out the Blues and ser­e­nad­ing the soft sounds to a packed house. Fort Wayne’s Blues Diva, who has been crowned Indiana’s Blues Woman of the Year, sang songs rang­ing from the play­ful “You can Have My Hus­band  to the Soul­ful “God Bless the Child” sang for Julia Meek on her birthday. 

Lock­ridge was back by Jeff McCray on gui­tar, and Fey Fey Mous­sou, TRIAAC’s house drum­mer and co-organizer.   Check out the entire range of songs on TRIAAC’s Youtube Channel

Tanika Burt turns up the heat

Poet’s Exs­presso Shots put the Cafe on boil

Tanika Burt’s poetry was the per­fect com­pli­ment for Cafe’s focus on the boun­ti­ful cre­ativ­ity of Black women. The sec­ond set was even more mean­ing­ful in that Tanika’s sis­ters were in the house and in full effect. The give and take between audi­ence and per­former was New York small cafe rich with the music and spo­ken­word move­ment of black life.
