Midi and the Modern Dance

“Ambience, intense lyrics, beautiful singing voices and basically anything that’s mature, intelligent rock…Midi’s tight live show and their surprisingly professional-sounding EP make the band full of promise…the thing sounds clear, mature, and the songs are varied enough to showcase their budding and wide-ranging indie-rock talents.”

Kevin “Element” Clark – New Year in Westport, CT

Element

Kevin “Element” Clark, a hip-hop artist, who performs under the stage name Element, has been writing and producing original hip-hop music for several years.

A senior at Staples High School, Clark has recently launched his third CD, Divine Intervention, and formerly had his own radio show on the Wreckers radio station, WWPT. He produces, orchestrates and writes his own music. His sound is multi-layered with string-laden beats and sing-a-long hooks. His fans compare Element’s sound to modern hip-hop wordsmiths like Lupe Fiasco and Kayne West.

The artist said he tries to create “progressive rap,” or songs with a message, and he believes the music industry will take notice of his positive style. Element persevered while facing adversity and he uses his experiences to fuel his music, writing positive rhymes instead of violent street fantasies.

Venue: Toquet Hall, 58 Post Road East, 9:15 to 10:30
