Day & Nite: Dance Experience

Get ready to see FAC's Sky Stage like never before. The Brain Dead Live Concert Series continues and this time they're teaming up with Frederick's own Falling Squares to bring an audio / visual experience that won't soon be forgotten.

 

With an all new stage layout, art and light installations, and multi-cam visual coverage, we'll set the stage for three local DJ's to take us on a journey through sound.

 

Day & Nite represents a transition between light and dark. With the event running from 7pm to 10pm, we'll start in daylight with Baspy, move through the golden hour with Sounds by Fred, and enter night with Bandeanie. Watch as the evening sky and ethereal sounds weave a tapestry of unfolding expression and beauty.

 

If you were in attendance for Brain Dead Live's last dance music event UNITY, then you already know, this event is not to be missed. If you're new to the scene, don't be shy- this is a safe space meant to bring people together through music, art, and community.

 

The event will be live streamed and professionally recorded courtesy of Falling Squares, for those who can't attend. Keep an eye on Falling Squares' instagram account for links and additional information.

Come dance, bring your friends, and make new friends!

Support the Frederick creative community by showing up and spreading the word.

DJ LINE-UP:

BASPY | 7:00pm - 8:00pm

SOUNDS BY FRED | 8:00pm - 9:00pm

BANDEANIE | 9:00pm - 10:00pm

SEE YOU ON THE DANCE FLOOR!
