Ever listened to Egyptian funk while eating oxtail? What about jamming some Lebanese fusion while eating jerk chicken? How bout vibing to Ethiopian jazz while eating a beef patty? No? Maybe American jazz classics while drinking sorrel? There’s a first time for everything 😎💿
Well today’s your chance — join Sahar Sounds at @traphouseatx from 4-8pm for an eclectic DJ set full of international deep cuts. Happy hour from 4-6pm.
Take a break from the chaos of SXSW and get the Shazam ready so you can take a few tunes from around the world home with you. 🌎
Tomorrow at Sahar Studios - Join us for our 3rd Full Moon Ritual & Bonfire of 2026, featuring a writing workshop by poet & rapper @chucky.blk . 🌕
The aforementioned “ritual” refers to the practice of writing things down on paper & releasing them into the fire at the end of the moon cycle.
Bring an offering, a friend, or at the least your favorite pen 📝
7-9pm on the east side - Dm for address

Today is the last day to vote RAZZFEST for “Most Creative Event” at the @austinmusicawards by the @austinchronicle . If you came to Razz or any other Sahar Studios event, please put a vote in for us so we can keep bringing accessible cultural programming to the city ❤️🔥
In 2025, we booked 30 rap & jazz acts to bring a new live music concept to life - RAZZ: A celebration of Rap & Jazz. With the help of grant funding, we were able to bring this full-day experience to our community for only $10. Supporting us in the AMAs will help us continue to raise funds to keep the event low cost (& hopefully, soon, free!)
We are excited to bring back the Razz in 2026, inshallah. After starting the year off with a very razzy 3-week residency with @blakchyl at Antone’s, we plan to continue to put together dope shows both in and out of the fest itself. As always, these shows - like the music itself - is for the people ✊🎶
