Yesterday (4-26-17) around 3PM, TruthCity texted me asking me what I was doing for the night. I didn't have anything planned so I asked him what's up. He invited me to his free show in Harlem with Acoustic Exchange which is a monthly, live event that features talented artists. So I grabbed my camera, hopped on the train, and made my way to Harlem from Queens. Acoustic Exchange, lead by Steff Reed, was the brand putting on the event in which they do the last Tuesday of every month. Their platform is an intimate, acoustic performance that is focused on a community through collaboration. It was a mix of live jam session, singers, rappers, and acoustic sessions. It was refreshing going to an event that was driven by instruments not an aux cord. Not only was every act exceptional, there was a lot of talk of changing the world with art. I can't remember all the sponsors but they were all really great. The theme of the night was 'Breaking Borders' which fit perfect with the vibe. Acoustic Exchange is not your ordinary event. They are breaking the borders of silence and pushing the culture forward.
