The Dallas-based collective Rogues Gallery, led by the formidable trombonist Gaika James, is a shadow organization of musical supervillains with a singular goal: world domination through the insidious power of doom-funk. Waiting in the city’s dark corners for the opportune moment, these agents of chaos use their villainous musical intentions to sow discord.

The band’s sonic assault is a meticulously crafted blend of funk, jazz, soul, and hip hop. They utilize the insidious groove of doom-funk to hypnotize and corrupt. Gaika James, with his trombone as a weapon, directs his ensemble of trombone-wielding conspirators, each note a step towards their ultimate plan to strike and destroy the city. They are a force to be reckoned with, hiding in plain sight and preparing for the perfect moment to reveal their master plan.

This concert-party is free and open to the public — but please consider donating your treats to the musicians’ tip jar.
