The Big Takeover

Led by the powerhouse, Jamaican-born singer and songwriter NeeNee Rushie, The Big Takeover's horn-powered global blend reveals deep fluency in reggae and world music, hints of soul and Motown, and their own infectious brand of pop classicism. Since 2007, the six-piece band has been packing clubs and building their brand and reputation on the road and in the studio. The Big Takeover take their cues from Desmond Dekker and the first wave of Jamaican pop music as well as from the soulful energy and sophistication of Motown. The Big Takeover has shared the stage with The Original Wailers, Jefferson Starship, Eek-a-Mouse, the Slackers and more. The band is currently in the studio working on their fourth full length record, and planning a national tour to celebrate its release. Admission $15. For reservations, call 914-737-1701. Come early.
