It’s a homecoming for 10x Grammy-nominated and 3x Grammy-winning producer, performer, songwriter Wyclef Jean when he plays the Brooklyn Bowl on Tuesday, March 22, following his March 18 performance at SXSW. CLICK HERE FOR TICKET INFO.
Wyclef’s show that night is a Caribbean Carnival celebration for fans, as he performs some of his classic tracks plus new music from his upcoming “Carnival 3” album set for release late this year. He’ll also be filming a video for his new single “My Girl,” which he’ll perform on “Good Day New York” on Monday, March 21. By popular demand, a second show at the Brooklyn Bowl has been added for March 29.
Brooklyn was Wyclef’s first home when he arrived in the U.S. from Haiti at age 10. He last appeared in Brooklyn when the Fugees reunited to perform for “Dave Chappelle’s Block Party” in 2006: https://vimeo.com/17100833.
A powerful pop cultural force for over two decades, Wyclef Jean has written, performed and produced music as both a solo superstar and as founder and guiding member of the Fugees, selling over 100 million albums worldwide in the process. His recent collaboration with The Knocks Kiss The Sky proves that Wyclef is as vital to music as he has ever been. Last month he premiered new music he composed for the game “Lost In Harmony” (LINK) at the New York Game Awards, and at CES launched the first of a new line of advanced audio produces in conjunction with Creative Technology LTD in his position as President of HEADS Innovation.
