Bassel and the Supernaturals

Bassel and the Supernaturals at CSPS Hall on Thursday, May 23, 2024 @ 7 p.m. Bassel and the Supernaturals tells the story of Bassel Almadani's experience as a first generation Syrian-American using soulful melodies, funk inspired rhythms, and captivating lyrics regarding love, loss, otherness, and the war in Syria. Echoing Stevie Wonder's rhythm and blues, Jamiroquai's social justice centered lyricism over jazz-infused funk, and Steely Dan's seamless amalgam of American music, Bassel and the Supernaturals evoke joy and thoughtfulness in diverse audiences throughout hundreds of cities across North America. In addition to performing in major festivals, performance halls, concert series, and clubs, the group works closely with organizations on events and residencies that build awareness and empathy for Syrian refugees and immigrants. Deeply inspired by Otis Redding, Bassel uses the stage as a vehicle to unite his listeners and share the story of his cultural duality. This is a General Admission seated show held in the theater of CSPS Hall. Doors will open 1 hour before showtime. $20 Advance | $25 Door
