HURRAY FOR THE RIFF RAFF @ FITZGERALDS

About the event

FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:HURRAY FOR THE RIFF RAFF seen HERE$45 General AdmissionAlynda Segarra is 36, or a little less than halfway through the average American lifespan. In that comparatively brief time, though, the Hurray for the Riff Raff founder has been something of a modern Huck Finn, an itinerant traveler whoseadventures prompt art that reminds us there are always other ways to live.Born in the Bronx and of Puerto Rican heritage, Segarra was raised there by a blue-collar aunt and uncle, as their father navigated Vietnam trauma and their mother neglected them to work for the likes of Rudy Giuliani. They were radicalizedbefore they were a teenager, baptized in the anti-war movement and galvanized in New Yorks punk haunts and queer spaces. At 17, Segarra split, becoming the kid in a communal squat before shuttling to California, where they begancrisscrossing the country by hopping trains. They eventually found homespiritual, emotional, physicalin New Orleans, forming a hobo band and realizing that music was not only a way to share what theyd learned and seen but to learn andsee more. Hurray for the Riff Raff steadily rose from house shows to a major label, where Segarra became a pan-everything fixture of the modern folk movement. But that yoke became a burden, prompting Segarra to make the probing and poignantelectronic opus, 2022s Life on Earth, their Nonesuch debut. Catch your breath, OK? Were back to 36, back to now.
