About this Event
BROKEN PROMISES: A NIGHT OF R&B
Friday, August 21, 2026 | 9:00 PM – 1:00 AM
Dragon Gate – Jack London Square | Oakland, CA
Some nights heal. Some nights hurt. This one does both.
Broken Promises returns to Oakland for another night dedicated to the music that raised us, shaped us, and stayed with us.
From the R&B records you grew up on to the songs that still hit a little too close to home, expect a soundtrack built around '90s and 2000s classics, slow jams, modern R&B, and just the right amount of hip-hop to keep the room moving.
This is a night for the records you know word for word.
The songs that remind you of somebody.
The heartbreak anthems you probably shouldn't be singing this loud.
And those moments when the entire room realizes they know every lyric.
Drew Banga and DJ SM will be behind the decks all night, taking us through generations of R&B from the moment the doors open until the last record fades.
Whether you're coming with your friends, celebrating something special, bringing a date, or just looking for a great Friday night in Oakland, there's a place for you here.
This isn't background music.
This is Broken Promises.
