2018 has been a big creative year for all our girlFx members, and we're excited to blow out our last Mass of the season with fresh sets from . . .

* * Boo Lean * *
Headlining tonight, gFx co-founder has been on her grind in 2018. From playing around the globe at CTM Festival Berlin, Dalston Superstore & NTS London, and Bossa Nova NYC, to curating the New Forms Festival in Vancouver - she rides for Pgh wherever she goes. Let's not forget that half the year she'd been doing all of this on crutches! Let's celebrate her recovery by (spiritually) breakin a leg w her on the dancefloor.

* * e-v * *
Comin in from Philly, we're stoked to have e-v back for another Mass! Evelyn started DJing as a student at CMU and part of WRCT, and has since taken their radio experience on the road to Philadelphia's WKDU. Although they've evolved from late night b2b2b2b2b practices with friends in a basement, their sound is reminiscent of those evenings -- sets that are about joy, nostalgia, and a celebration of the experience of dancing alongside friends at late hours.

* * @dermatone.pgh * *
Making her Mass debut, dermatone started DJing vinyl with friends in the Midwest electronic scene. She's been an avid coordinator of local music and arts events both in Madison and then Pittsburgh, and enjoys sharing her beloved brunch house vibe both as a member of gfx and the founder of REBP. Warm up the floor enjoying her wide selection of eclectic funky beats.

* * slowdanger (hybrid set) * *
With their latest release, oversoul, out on MISC records, slowdanger is a multidisciplinary performance entity based in Pittsburgh PA founded by Anna Thompson and Taylor Knight. Their work fuses sound and movement into an elusive, but illustrative combination of dance frameworks, electronic instrumentation, vocalization, physiological centering and ontological examination. slowdanger uses performance as a ritual practice to delve into circular life patterning: such as effort, transformation, and death. slowdanger’s sound and performance work has been featured internationally in venues ranging from proscenium theater settings and galleries to nightclubs and dive bars.
