Urban Organic is concert/festival designed to bring progressive music and art lovers in the city of
Detroit out to celebrate the richness of the city's varied music scene. At the same time, the vision of the festival is focused squarely on the future of an international music movement, which in many ways can be likened to a worldwide Harlem Renaissance. The mission of the festival is to promote the critical artists of today's urban music soundscape and to viscerally effect its attendees with new rhythms, sights, and sounds.
