A recent Instagram post by a rising performer captures the energy of a late-night jam session at Nublu 151’s Producer Mondays series. In a candid caption, the artist thanked Grammy-nominated pianist Ray Angry for the invitation and praised the collective spirit of the evening. “Met some amazing artist, your music & energy is part of the painting. I enjoyed being side by side with you guys,” the post reads, tagging fellow contributors DJ Luna Rosa, Bako Like Taco, Anna Kova, Free Speech, and Jermaine Toon.
Producer Mondays: A Hub For Collaboration
Producer Mondays has become a fixture of New York’s downtown live-music scene since its launch. Curated by Ray Angry and his house band, the Council of Goldfinger, the weekly Monday night event brings together producers, vocalists, instrumentalists, and DJs for spontaneous performances. Hosted at Nublu 151 on Avenue C, the series balances experimental sets with groove-driven jams—and its open-invite ethos has attracted both emerging artists and seasoned pros.
A Night To Remember
Photographers Kiwi Nigram, Ace Wayne, and Alexandra Marley captured frames of the guest artist stepping into the spotlight alongside Ray Angry’s ensemble. The post’s images show a dynamic stage layout: Angry at the keyboard, his signature gold-trimmed Rhodes in tow, flanked by the guest’s vocal mic stand and DJ Luna Rosa spinning on vinyl. Interactions between band members and the artist underscore the collaborative nature of Producer Mondays, where each performance is a co-creation rather than a solo showcase.
Ray Angry’s Musical World
Ray Angry has built a reputation as one of the most versatile pianists in modern music. A member of The Roots and longtime keyboardist for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’s house band, Angry seamlessly bridges jazz, R&B, classical, and hip-hop. His work has appeared on Grammy-nominated records, and he’s known for pushing stylistic boundaries in both studio sessions and live stages.
Just last week, Angry announced his solo debut at Manhattan’s acclaimed cabaret venue 54 Below. In a July 11 & 12 announcement post, he teased an evening that “transcends genres, blending jazz, classical, R&B, & more.” Fans can reserve tickets now for what promises to be a multi-dimensional showcase of his keyboard artistry.
Beyond the keyboard, Angry hosts the Takin’ a Walk Podcast with singer Ryan Shaw, diving deep into creative processes and behind-the-scenes stories from Off Broadway. That series, too, highlights his commitment to community and artistic exchange—values at the core of Producer Mondays.
Looking Ahead
Producer Mondays continues every Monday from 10 PM to 2 AM at Nublu 151. Upcoming guests announced on the event’s Instagram include singer-poet Tai Allen and experimental R&B duo Malaya Tina & Mathew Field, ensuring each week offers fresh collaborations. For artists seeking to share the stage with Ray Angry and his Council of Goldfinger, submissions can be sent via the Nublu website or social channels.
The latest post may have been “late,” but its message is clear: When creative minds converge in an open-minded setting, the result is a living, breathing work of art. As one participant put it, “Your music & energy is part of the painting”—and in New York’s restless nightlife, Producer Mondays remains one of the most vibrant canvases in town.
