Summa Bumma
to
The Fruit 305 S Dillard St, Durham, North Carolina 27701
As you likely know, September is music-festival season in the Triangle, with Hopscotch, Art of Cool, Wide Open Bluegrass, and more, all clustered together on the calendar. (Thank god Moogfest and Dreamville have staked out spring.) Summa Bumma, a new, one-night mini-fest at The Fruit, is wisely sliding in ahead of the glut for its first outing, which has a great mix of North Carolina artists and a strong focus on electronic music, hip-hop, and soul. We’ll get DJ sets by the likes of Raund Haus hotshot Trandle and Party Illegal mainstay Treee City; hip-hop from Raleigh up-and-comer Ace Henderson; vocal stylings by the always-entrancing A.yoni Jeffries; live-band music from Zoocrü guitarist Russell Favret and bassist Darion Alexander, and more. The night is hosted by Ashia Skye, a K97.5 radio personality and the host of the YouTube series #TheComeUp. It’s a tasty appetizer for the festival feast heading our way this fall.
