Miami Nights

Miami Nights has been asked to participate in a very special event coming up in a week. On September 15, 2007, Miami artists, musicians and community members will join nearly a million world citizens in over 350 locations in 60 countries for the world's largest synchronized music and dance festival for peace and to support environmental causes through the global language of music and dance.

Earthdance, dubbed "The Dance Aid for the New Millennium" which began in London, will be presented by Sustainable Recordings and Moksha Family. The mega-event's mission is to foster peace, environmental awareness, and harmony throughout the global sphere while supporting local environmental non-profits. Earthdance Miami will benefit ECOMB, a local, non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the environment in South Florida.

This event will be exploding with over 12 bands, 20 DJs, performance artists, cultural dance troupes, yogis, meditators from various groups, environmental activists, green business representatives, speakers and even a sustainable eco- fashion show- all happening simultaneously on several stages. Already confirmed and set to perform are several of Miami's top artists such as electronic dubsters Agape featuring Nadia Harris, GRAMMY-nominated Locos Por Juana, the "town troubadour" Jesse Jackson, Billboard chart-topping DJ/Producer Ralph Falcon and many others.

This is a pretty impressive event that brings awareness to the already growing concerns of global ecological responsibility. What better way to show your support and to show local, federal and international politicians your support for the environment than joining a world wide celebration of it. I am personally excited about the event and jumped at the opportunity to be a part of it.

What is also so unique about this event is the immense collaboration and unification of groups in Miami. From the Poplife crew, Spiderpussy, Supermarket Creative, Sweat Records and the list goes on and on. With people like this supporting Earthdance it can only spell success for environmental causes. Earthdance is taking place at the Area 57 Studios located at 5701 NE 2nd Ave.

Tickets can be bought online at www.groovetickets.com, Uncle Sam's, Base and Sweat Records.
