“AntiBabel” Release Party in NYC to benefit Machik
On December 18th, in the mind-blowingly beautiful Soho loft of world-class designer, Cheryl Heller, our friends and NYC neighbors gathered to celebrate the very first music release from Pop!Tech.
Pop!Tech CEO Thomas LeVine and Producer Beth Cohen
Andrew started off the evening speaking about Pop!Tech and how this amazing project came together. Losang Rabgey, director of Machick - the charity to which 100% of the CD price is being donated- offered a few words about the work that she and her organization do in rural Tibet. And then there was the much anticipated live performance of Yungchen Lhamo and Reggie Watts. Completely improvised and completely amazing, the two artists unique sounds filled the loft space.
