In case you missed the memo, the city of New York is about to officially be set afire, thanks to an intriguing set of events sponsored by popular cognac brand, Hennessy.

The Hennessey Artistry U.S. tour has been in full effect, as co-curators The Roots and Q-Tip have been successfully manning the helm of Hennessy’s effort to seamlessly blend the world’s best music, culture and art.

The New York City-based events will take place on Sept. 22 at Brooklyn Bowl; Sept. 29 at S.O.B.’s; Oct. 6 at an undisclosed location and will conclude with the finale concert of the U.S. tour at Cipriani Wall Street on Oct. 14.

Outside of the phenomenal talents of the co-curators, fans can expect exciting live performances from Travie McCoy, Asher Roth, R&B newcomer Miguel, and so many more. They will also be treated to the brand’s signature cocktails showcasing the cognac’s classic and contemporary flavor celebrating Hennessy’s art of blending.

I know one thing; this sounds like a party worth attending. For more info, log on to www.hennessy.com and check out some of the cool teaser videos below.
