Photos by Irene Stergios

Joyride is a new reggae event series presented by LargeUp at Le Bain, on the top floor and rooftop of The Standard High Line hotel in NYC.

Named for the Joyride riddim, the classic dancehall instrumental, the party is hosted by veteran NY nightlife curators Wildcat Ebony Brown and Phillip Leeds with selectors Stretch Armstrong and DJ Gravy. Guests at last weekโ€™s inaugural edition at Le Bain included dancehall star Rayvon, actor/singer Sheldon Shepherd of the No-maddz, hip-hop producer LV, artist/model Laney Degrasse and a whole lot of our favorite New York people.

Check out the photos, and join us for the next edition on Thursday, Aug. 9.
