We left town and headed up north to Rockland County for their fabulous pride event. Also of importance, they were able to buy a building and make a new pride center! Here’s a short little video of us rocking out in Nyack, NY for Rockland County Pride.
What else does a New York City Band do in the summer??
The High Holiday called the Coney Island Mermaid Parade! By far, our most fun event of the summer! Why? We get to make more costumes! It was a rainy (ok, pouring) afternoon this year for the parade! We almost decided to back out to keep the drums dry, BUT, the rain stopped right at the 1pm step off time for the parade! We started out super wet but our music and dance dried us off down Surf Ave! This video below is a great showcase of us doing our thing!
OOO! Sports! We make a great stadium band!
We trekked back out to Coney Island’s MCU Park in July for a NY Cosmos Soccer Game! What a thriller it was! We sat behind the goal and played throughout the whole game!
The summer has come and gone in 2017. Please check out our end of summer blog post by our very own Shelly Surdo! New York City Band FogoAzul NYC is now heading into our second year! We are honored to have been a part of the summer in New York City. There are so many things to do here in NYC, but summer by is the best time of the year!
