Layover DC

DC! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Donae’O won’t be joining us tonight, but don’t trip, the vibes are STILL taking off. 🛫 Our residents NativeSun & Mathias are holding it down in true LAYOVER style, and we’re bringing in our homegirl DARLING COOL to elevate the night! 🔥 If you’ve never caught a Darling Cool set before (where tf you been?!), TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT! Darling Cool is a musically eclectic DJ, event curator, and aspiring producer making fresh and meaningful waves on her bicoastal adventures between DC and Oakland. While you can catch her selecting classics, deep cuts, remixes, and edits across various genres, she places a heavy emphasis on sharing soul-moving, dance-heavy beats influenced by her Nigerian + German roots and inspired by the wide range of house music she was raised on. She has rocked stages from SF to LA, DC to NY, and beyond—playing direct support for Aluna + Coco & Breezy, Anastazja, Aquite, Drama, Full Crate, Jayda G, and sharing bills with Andre Power, Ashanti, HoneyLuv, Jyoty, Kaytranada, MK, NEZ, Salvatore Ganacci, Snakehips, and more. Darling Cool is ½ of @apartycalledbutter , ⅓ of the @bussdowncollective , and the creator of @blackgirls_linkup . 📍 The Vinyl Room @ SOST 🕙 Doors at 10PM 💸 No Cover | 21+ Let’s make it one for the books.
