“Step Into The Black” was a Captain Morgan Black launch party with a live performance from indie rock legends, The Walkmen and Questlove of The Roots spinning on the 1’s & 2’s. The journey to get into the party was a “speakeasy” dimensional adventure.
As I arrived at the event, I gave the doorman the secret password and oddly he opened the basement door. So as I stepped down I was greeted by models in Victorian dresses that were passing Champagne flutes, but I noticed there weren’t many people present. Once I given my glass she asked me, “Are you ready to step into the black?” I knodded and there was a secret passage way behind the bookcase. I was astounded!
Once I walked up the stairs, I realized that I finally arrived as I saw passed hors d’oeuvres, smiling faces, cocktails, great energy, and felt the vibrant bass from Quest Love in the booth spinning hipster favorites. There were two open bars adjacent from one another with dimensional ice sculptures with Captain Morgan Black bottles frozen inside. Once Quest Love finished his set, The Walkmen performed live and kept the crowd going.
