Silky smooth 90's R&B Coming to the Cap City

Legendary R&B group Dru Hill is set to headline this year’s Black Arts & Cultural Festival at the Empire State Plaza in Albany on Saturday, August 2. The outdoor concert is the finale of the annual celebration, which honors Black music, art, and culture in the Capital Region.

The event runs from 5 to 8 p.m., with Dru Hill taking the stage at 7 p.m. Known for timeless hits like “In My Bed,” “Tell Me,” and “How Deep Is Your Love,” Dru Hill’s smooth harmonies and high-energy performances helped define ‘90s R&B.
