The Ox Jam Summer Kick-off

Written By Joseph Porter

Amber Riley, Jean Deaux and more pulled up for a packed Ox Jam headlined by Detroit’s very own Johdi! Josiah Maddox curated a range of artists who each brought their own flare. Russ, Caylen Camille, Joseph Valenté, Amber Brazon, Erik Michael and special guest Illville Vanguard all performed alongside an all-star house band at The Promontory in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood.

I’m really proud of what we were able to pull off. I’m currently the lead producer of Ox Jam and I’m proud to work alongside my cousins Leonard and Josiah to create that celebrates the incredible talent in Chicago.
