It was a cold, rainy Friday night down at the Wharf in Washington DC. However, that did NOT stop the party at Pearl Street Warehouse with Black Masala and Hayley Jane.

Next up, the energic brass-fueled ensemble Black Masala lit up the stage and turned Pearl Street upside down. The room boomed with funky sousaphone beats blended with rhythmic horns and harmonic vocals. Black Masala had the entire room literally jumping within minutes.

Each night Devon sent the audience soaring. The energy never dipped for a moment once he stepped up to the microphone. His soulful vocals and powerful rifts lit the fuse on two wild nights of music. He played a wide assortment of his music including the title track from his April 2023 album, Love You Anyway.

Both Friday and Saturday, Grace took the stage showcasing her new backdrop complete with mother road rug, gas pump, and Gremlin-adorned organ. The full scene of Mother Road was present for the audience’s journey through the desert.

Grace has one again reinvented her sound with Mother Road. Showcasing new bandmates and a new alter ego: Lady Vagabond. She commanded the stage and never let her foot off the gas.
