Unlike your typical D.C. weekend, Sunday is the heavy hitter this weekend. But before we get to the musical wonders Sunday brings us, let’s see what the other two-thirds of the weekend has in store.
Friday (9/21) bust a move at DC9 with its staple Liberation Dance Party with special guest DJ Marc Alan Gray, or over at the Rock & Roll Hotel’s Epic Dance Party with DJ Doc Rok. U Street Music Hall is hosting Animal Liberation Orchestra’s (ALO) California, groovy rock though the 9:30 club presents series.
The Depeche Mode Dance Party is back at the Black Cat Saturday (9/22) evening for those who just can’t get enough of those Brits and their iconic electro-pop.
Also on Saturday, Comet Ping Pong hosts Heavy Breathing’s album release party with Edie Sedgwick, Win Win and DJ White Noise along for the ride.
Good luck choosing from all the great acts on Sunday: Ital, Laurel Halo and others take DC9; Cate Le Bon with David Klinger play the Red Palace; and Wye Oak plays the 9:30 club with openers Callers. If the world was kind to us, there would be a way to attend all three.
