The New Parish 10 Year Anniversary Show
FANTASTIC NEGRITO, EBRONAH EDWARDS, SOCORRA
Fantastic Negrito is black roots music for everyone, blues with a punk attitude from Oakland. Formerly recorded under the name Xavier.
Fantastic Negrito is a man's truth told in the form of black roots music. Each song is a real story about a musician from Oakland who experienced the highs of a million dollar record deal, the lows of a near fatal car accident that left him in a coma, and is now in the phase of rebirth despite his playing hand being mangled. After a long break from music, Fantastic Negrito won NPR's inaugural Tiny Desk Contest in 2015. Since then he's performed with artists including Chris Cornell, Solange, and Temple of the Dog, and this year he will be touring with Sturgill Simpson. His first full-length album The Last Days of Oakland won the 2017 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album.
