I am excited to be hosting Electric Vardo on March 30th with Amar in San Francisco. This is going to be a special night marking 2 years in Electric Vardo's journeys. Mark your calendar. This night will take place at Club Six in the Dark Room and feature a collaboration of Bay Area crews TRIPLE POWER, NONSTOP BHANGRA, BELLY GROOVE, SHADOWDANCE and ELECTRIC VARDO in one night under one roof, featuring ARIELLAH, FREDERIQUE, DHOL RHYTHMS, GIAMMA & SHANTI, DJ JIMMY LOVE, JENNIFER FAUST, SOOOZHYQ and you hosts FREYJA & AMAR
This will be more than a dance party, more than a set of performances, it'll be a true collaboration intermixing Dance Performance and DJ sets with live percussion ... cross polination of genres and styles, in a cohesive and complementary way ... totally Electric Vardo Style. www.electricvardo.com
