DJ Shortkut - James Brown Tribute Set @ Good Foot
It's been three years since we lost the godfather of soul, James Brown, but his legacy and music lives on. A couple of weeks ago we had the one and only DJ Shortkut grace us with a special James Brown tribute set at our weekly event Good Foot.
Every week Distortion 2 Static, Good Company, and SWTBRDS presents Good Foot -- a weekly party that's all about connecting with creative people who grind on the daily to elevate themselves and their communities. Ease into your weekend at a stylish new venue, and relax your mind with an eclectic crowd who will always make you feel welcome.
We're honored to have the legendary DJ Shortkut spinning tonight at Good Foot. He'll be blessing the crowd with a very special James Brown dedication set. We've also got San Francisco mainstay DJ Strategy laying it down along with our resident DJ Haylow, Prince Aries, A-Ron.
