The Backwards Step + The Stepchildren

wearemadashell:

A super talented friend’s design is in the TOP 5 of this Levi’s design competition.  Be sure to cast your vote and help get this fantastic illustration on a bandana!  (For the record: We think it’s better than the rest of the bunch, so come on people! Don’t be lazy, vote every day!)

Our special friend Dana has been busy making tunes that make our feet tap uncontrollably.

The Backwards Step is playing host to a Speakeasy

Its that time. And to you we are grateful.  With your help we are days away from our SEVENTH SpeakEasy!
We have been to Hunts Point, and Mott Haven in the Boogie Down.  We’ve shared and inspired one another in Bushwick, Crown Heights, and Harlem…
We’ve eaten a BUNCH of tasty home cooked treats, drank some good drankiddy drank, networked… but more importantly we are building a vital base with one another.
THIS Thursday, May 27th we come to East Williamsburg!  

Our gracious hosts also include NRO/Ordervision’s own film/art geniuses Alex Seel and MuGadu.  We are still in the exciting wake of Faro’s debut of Only Built For Afro-Cuban Linx, and will inspire, share, motivate, and party like none other.
Thank you!! Without you all this would not have been possible.  Come see exclusive photos, art, and sounds.  Maybe even some photos of YOU from past SpeakEasies...  we got some special guest poets from the loft’s own Buffalo Poets
Tunes from house DJ Fleece Beast
Special guest DJ Metaphysics
And your hosts New Rap Order!!
