This week, the New York soul bus was robbed. Fred again.., Four Tet, and Skrillex have come to the rescue raising $12,600 to repair the bus. They famously played in it at Times Square last year before their massive MSG show.
A GoFundMe has also been started for the NYC bus. The robbers took everything inside including DJ and sound equipment. Sadly they have a massive Riddim Bus event coming up where the bus is required. Over $20,000 has already been raised thanks to generous ravers.
City Soul’s mission has always been to bring as many free street parties to the people of New York City as possible, while embodying diversity, inclusion, and equality. Since they started in 2020 as a grassroots passion project, City Soul has grown into a respected and beloved community force by showcasing the talents of local DJs and performers.
City Soul Bus founder, Alan Gibson thanked the trio with this statement:
“They really saved our bacon. We’re just gonna go right back to partying…we’ll keep going and doing what we do to help to bring all of the communities together, bring joy to people, and bring the relief that we think everybody needs.”
