Waterfront Blues Festival
Named after the date of their first gig (3/4/03), the MarchFourth Marching Band has evolved into a high-energy, eclectic and mobile unit of good times, taking a Fellini-esque mix of Mardi Gras mayhem, Afro beat, Mexican hustle, gypsy samba, big band blues, and Bulgarian blat to the streets and parks, and the club and festival scene--anywhere people seek liberation through hip-shaking beats, driving bass, and high-flying horn arrangements, accompanied by their surrealist troupe of stilt-dancers, fire-spinners, and costumed beauties. MarchFourth will storm through the festival late afternoon on Saturday.
