The duo the New York Times called “Bed-Stuy’s favorite creative couple” grace the clubs of Ibiza, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Europe, UK, and Canada with their blend of DJing, performance art, and live music tracks …. and now they return after their jaw-dropping Gloucester debut last year for the Cape Ann Pride Weekend. Hostess extraordinaire Dr. Viola Voila will tantalize with her captivating performances and keep the party vibes flowing. DJ opener Salomon delivers deep, danceable tracks to get the party started.
