Helado Negro is in a lane of his own. The South Florida native and multi-instrumentalist is also a producer, a sound engineer, creative director, and mesmerizing singer with a degree in computer art and animation. On December 4, the prolific artist returns to his hometown for a live performance at ZeyZey, drawing from his ninth studio album, PHASOR, and a catalog of dreamy, atmospheric music layered with synths and bilingual lyrics that nod to a newfound sense of freedom.
Twenty years ago, Art Basel Miami Beach was a blip on our social calendar, a serious art fair for serious art industry folks and collecting connoisseurs. Yet, over the last two decades, this international fair has morphed into one of Miami's biggest events of the year, spawning hundreds of satellite art shows, music festivals, gourmet dinners, wellness pop-ups and even pool parties.
