A new series of events will feature music, comedy, and interviews with people who represent the upcoming, creative spirit of Brooklyn.

This Sunday, “Kings County” will debut at the Galapagos Art Space in Dumbo. The series of events is named after the county that contains Brooklyn, and “Kings County” will feature three nights of entertainment centered around the theme of what makes Brooklyn great.

The June 10th show will be hosted by WNYC’s Kurt Andersen and Franchesca Ramsey, with guest Kurt Braunohler (comedian, host of IFC’s new show ‘Bunk’) and music by The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger (Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp Muhl).

Reserve your tickets while they’re still available and head over to Galapagos Art Space in Dumbo this Sunday to check out the show.

Coming up: Two more “Kings County” shows on June 24th and June 29th with upcoming guests: Jessi Klein, Kristen Schaal, Wyatt Cenac, Eleanor Friedberger, Lucy Sexton, Chairlift, and an as-of-yet-unannounced special guest. Read more at the WNYC site.
