AC Lincoln Quintet
Friday, January 17
7:30PM|9:00PM
Native New Yorker AC Lincoln was "born in a trunk" to jazz singing duo parents Kim and Marion while on their tour of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Landing back on the scene in NYC, AC would soon be sharing the stage with many of the tap dance greats Jimmy Slyde, Buster Brown, Chuck Green and Savion Glover, as well as sharing the family stage with his sister, widely acclaimed singer and songwriter Emily King.
Besides writing, producing, arranging and singing his own original music, AC Lincoln has been both a sideman for acts like The Hot Sardines, Mercedes Ellington, Winard Harper and Jeli Posse, and a bandleader, singing and tap dancing throughout NYC and abroad. Lincoln and his All Star jazz band delight with their swinging renditions of the jazz standards. Infused with the great Black American art form Tap Dance, Lincoln sets the music to the rhythms of his own beat. Don’t miss him LIVE at the Django on Thursday November 16!
