PURGATORY DANCE PARTY
feat. DJ SAM SEWELL
10PM-Late Purgatory @ Gifford House,
9 Carver Street • $10
"Brat summer” is upon us. Confused? It's the phenomenon that has taken over pop listeners since the release of Charli XCX’s album "BRAT" on June 7, which has fans declaring this is a "Brat summer." USA TODAY called the album an embrace of “a hot-mess pop star aesthetic, prioritizing club culture at its core but still offering introspective lyrics on aging, womanhood, grief and anxiety.” That's a good starting place to understanding what this trend, and tonight's party with DJ Sam Sewell, is all about -- dancing, unabashedly of course, to Charlie XCX, Billie Eilish, Chappel Roan and all things Brat Girl Summer.
FRIDAY, JULY 26, 2024
