Providence is bestowing quite a gift upon 101 Reykjavík at the end of this month. And by Providence, we really mean the
capital of Rhode Island, though we're a little suspicious that Divine Providence may have had something to do in bringing the
19-piece explosion of fun known as the What Cheer? Brigade to the North Atlantic. Though they're actually something of a
marching band, they'll be playing a proper show at Faktorý. But don't worry, there's no way you'll be able to keep yourself from
dancing as soon as they start playing their high energy blend of New Orleans jazz, Bollywood, Balkan, Hip Hop, Klezmer and
punk music. Faktorý will have to double check their floorboards to make sure the second storey doesn't collapse. If you can't
make it Sunday, no worries; they'll be on the island by Friday, bringing their party to the streets downtown all weekend. EJP
