LUCKY L'ÉTOILE
You must be our lucky star! (and you, and you and you!) We're so tickled about our upcoming collaboration this weekend with photographer phenomenon Amy Pierce and our lovely subjects Emma Berg and Ben Olson. We can't wait to show off the fruits of our labors! While we're glims-deep in photo shoots, we hope you'll let your hair down and celebrate this sweltering 40-degree heatwave. And speaking of hot hot hot, a big dancing ovation to DJ Danger Havok, who will make his debut at the First Avenue Mainroom for Too Much Love this Saturday along with Soviet Panda and friends!

Rift Magazine's 36 Hour Songwriting Contest
@ Bryant Lake Bowl
Bryant & Lake

Over a dozen songwriters have a paltry 36 hours to write a tune around a randomly chosen theme. Then they’ll be belting it out in front of the listening public, who will decide which song is worthy of the absurdly large and extravagantly decorated trophy.

SUNDAY MUSIC PICK
Bunny Rabbit
We’ve never heard anything like Brooklyn native Bunny Rabbit, who throws naughty nursery rhymes sassily over moody electro/minimalist beats. Her debut album, Lovers and Crypts, is already garnering attention for its mix of cute and dirty.
