Mwenso and the Shakes (USA) Harlem 100 A century ago, the Great Migration turned New York City into a hub for rising black culture, where the Harlem Renaissance ushered in new waves of powerful black thought, literature, fashion and music. In Harlem 100, undeniable showman Michael Mwenso leads his band the Shakes through an ecstatic multimedia celebration of that legacy. Together, they revisit the sights and sounds of Fats Waller, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday and the like.
