Please join Ars Nova Workshop for a performance by the visionary producer, percussionist, composer and cosmic facilitator Carlos Niño at Solar Myth on Sunday, March 23.

Carlos Niño refers to himself musically, and in many aspects of his life, as a “communicator,” a role that encompasses his own work as well as his integral work on projects like André 3000’s New Blue Sun. Producing, playing and making music are just some of the facets of that title, as was his long-running, wide-ranging Spaceways Radio program on Los Angeles’ KPFK. Niño’s earliest collaborators and mentors included Dwight Trible, Kamau Daaood, Adam Rudolph, Derf Reklaw, JMD, Phil Ranelin, Nate Morgan, and Billy Higgins, and his ever-expanding circle of collaborators has since grown to include Shabaka Hutchings, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Surya Botofasina, Jamire Williams, Sam Gendel, Nate Mercereau, Deantoni Parks, Farmer Dave Scher, Cut Chemist, Madlib, Laraaji, and others.
