Sounds of Blackness: American Debut at The Avalon Lounge

Join us for a historic evening as Sounds of Blackness makes its highly anticipated American debut at The Avalon Lounge in Catskill, New York.

Presented by EPM Productions, the legendary Amsterdam dance event celebrates over a decade of music, culture, community, and Black excellence. This special edition takes place during Black August, honoring the rich legacy of Black resistance, empowerment, and celebration.

The evening also celebrates the 54th birthday of Elliott Matos, bringing together music lovers, dancers, and community members for a powerful gathering rooted in culture and connection.

Powered by the Hudson Catskill Housing Coalition, this event is more than a party—it's a celebration of history, resilience, and the transformative power of music.
