This January, members of The Nth Power are hosting a weekly residency, dubbed NTHFECTIOUS, featuring different themes and special guests each week to kick off 2016 with a bang. The group comprised of Nikki Glaspie, Nate Edgar and Nick Cassarino, led some all-star jams at last week’s Hip-Hop Night at The Knitting Factory. 

The night was packed with friends, family, old school hip-hop and new-school attitude. Incredibly special we are to have experienced Nth in this setting, and how lucky are we to have two more nights of their themed, guest-filled awesomeness. In anticipation of this upcoming week’s R&B Night, let’s relive the hip-hop one more time…

Featuring Nikki Glaspie (drums), Nick Cassarino (guitar), Stu Brooks (bass), @Eccussionist (drums), Nick Semrad (keys), Basil Wadjowicz (keys), Lex D Emcee (vocals), Noble (vocals), DJ Raydar Ellis (vocals), Lay Quin (saxophone) and La Mega (trumpet).
