All Blues: A Miles Dewey Davis Centennial Birthday Celebration - 5/26

IMG 0283On Tuesday, May 26, WPFW presents All Blues: A Miles Dewey Davis Centennial Birthday Celebration, 5am until midnight. 

Davis is one of the most influential figures of the 20th century - transforming music, fashion and art! His life was complex - marked by both amazing accomplishment as a co-architect of Bebop, and marred by the perpetration of domestic violence. Our special will unpack it all.
That’s Miles Smiles: A Miles Dewey Davis Centennial Birthday Celebration beginning at 5am on Tuesday, May 26, on WPFW…your station for Jazz and justice!
