Thanks to everyone who came out for our final week of the residency at Brooklyn Bowl. This week, we had openers Raja Kassis's Humanbeing, and guest artists Lee Fields, Quantic, Sahr Ngaujah, and Kalmia Traver of Rubblebucket. It was a beautiful night.

Here are some highlights from Instagram:

Lee Fields “She's a Love Maker” 11/18/2015 at Brooklyn Bowl

What a way to end an incredible 4 week run at @brooklynbowl last night with #antibalas. Words can't describe how good it feels to put a tremendous amount of work in with a group of guys who push me to my best. Every single person in the Antibalas family inspires me in their own right as well as collectively - Monster musicians, people, and friends. So much fun last night, collaborating with Sahr, Kalmia, some cumbia w/ Quantic and some real deal soul n funk w/ the one and only Mr. Lee Fields (pictured with us above). One for the ages...Till the next time! Photo by @misterkingdom A photo posted by Raja Kassis (@rajakassis) on Nov 19, 2015 at 12:59pm PST
