Galeet Dardashti and The Naming

Six Points Fellow Galeet Dardashti’s new album The Naming drops in September. Culture ensues.  From Galeet.

Hi there!  September is an exciting time for me, as the long-awaited release of my album “The Naming” is finally here!  Please mark your calendar for September 14 and spread the word.  With live music and dance, video, and tasty food and drink, it promises to be an amazing night for all the senses.  The Huffington Post calls the album “a heart-stopping effort” and says it will “make you fall hard in love” (with me!).  Here’s a short video excerpt from the show.
