Today Sam’s turning the loft into a true party house, because the party master himself, Andrew W.K., is stopping by. On the menu: Party Hard Brisket (root beer braised beef brisket), Long Live Puppies (ham hock and grits hush puppies) and I Get Mashed (parsnip mash). Andrew helps Sam get the meal started, but it doesn’t take long before he races upstairs to belt out “Party Hard,” for Sam’s friends. When he comes back to the kitchen, the meal is finished, and Sam shakes up The Wolf (a sassafras and vanilla infused gin and root beer cocktail). Andrew and Sam eat and drink and talk about Andrew’s career. Then it’s time for another unpredictable performance from Andrew W.K., “I Get Wet.”

Lightspeed Champion’s Devonté Hynes is in town and ready to eat! Sam has planned a meal inspired by Dev’s London roots and his love for falafel. He’s making Big Gun Falafel (green pistachio falafel), Dead Head Hummus (English pea hummus) and How Do You Do Muhammara (red pepper muhammara), along with a cool curry yogurt poori. Sam and Lightspeed Champion get the falafel mixture started, then Sam continues to work on the meal, while Lightspeed plays “Marlene” for a group of Sam’s friends. After the song, Dev returns to the kitchen to help finish making dinner. Sam whips up a cocktail he calls “The Marlene,” and dinner is served. After the last bite, everyone heads upstairs for another Lightspeed Champion song, “I Don’t Want to Wake Up Alone.”

The ethereal, synth-loving trio, “Au Revoir Simone” is paying a visit to their neighbor in Brooklyn, chef Sam Mason. He’s making them a meal, and in return, they’ll entertain him and his friends with an intimate concert. Sam knows that the members of Au Revoir Simone (Erika Forster, Annie Hart and Heather D’Angelo) love Korean food, so he’s making them a Mason House version of the traditional Bibimbop, with Golden Eggs (soy eggs) and Lucky Kimchi (a quick beet kimchi). Since the ladies love beets, he’ll also make them his famous Beet Sangria. They help him out in the kitchen, then go upstairs to play “All or Nothing” for his friends. After dinner and plenty of toasting to a great day, Au Revoir Simone performs an encore, “Anywhere You Looked”

Theophilus London is ready to entertain Sam Mason and his friends with some of his new urban pop melodies, as well as dig into one of Sam’s specialty meals. Sam has decided to use Theophilus’s Caribbean childhood as the inspiration for tonight’s menu. He’s making Calypso Porterhouse (porterhouse steak), Charming Callaloo (Callaloo salad) and Burning Cornbread (Cornbread with jerk seasoning and honey). After Theophilus helps Sam in the kitchen for a bit, he steps upstairs to rip out his song, “Julia.” When he returns to the kitchen, the meal gets finished, and Sam whips up the “Dark and Humdrum,” a ginger beer and rum cocktail. The dinner is devoured, the drinks are downed, and Theophilus has another song for the crowd, called “Humdrum Town.”
