Words by LargeUp Crew—
On Sunday, August 5—on the eve of Jamaica’s 50th independence celebrations—the LargeUp crew will be ringing in the momentous occasion out at Ruschmeyer’s in Montauk, Long Island, with a special, live rub-a-dub performance from original dancehall queen Sister Nancy. Part of l Ruschmeyer’s Saturday-and-Sunday afternoon/evening (5 to 9p.m.) “Come Back to Jamaica” series, LargeUp’s own DJ Gravy, along with Micro Don, will be bringing the sounds to this special event, live and direct from what may be the sickest DJ booth in America. (Check the booth, custom tailored by Ruschmeyer’s owner and designer Robert McKinley, below). Meet us at the Blackwell Rum Shack!
