THURSDAY: AJB & THE SOUL ASCENSION
Step into a late-night soundscape with AJB & The Soul Ascension Band.
Warm grooves, intimate swing, and slow-burning energy set the mood from the first note.
Two curated sets lead into an after-hours session where the night deepens and the music opens up.
For lovers, listeners, and night people.
The name started as a joke between friends — a nod to John Brown the Abolitionist — but Alias John Brown turned it into something earned. From Chicago's underground scene to the Bay Area's stages, AJB has built a catalog (For the Non-Believers, The American Nightmare H1N1, Retribution) and a live reputation — sharing stages with Wu-Tang, E-40, Tech N9ne, Hopsin, Twista, and Andre Nickatina — rooted in authenticity and relentless craft. He doesn't perform hip-hop. He lives it.
