Summer Nightmare at Sparta Inn

From A Nightmare at Sparta Inn

Special Guests: Space Lumberjacks, Coast is Clear, Antica, and Once Drowned are performing at Sparta Inn on Saturday June 29, 2019 in Sparrows Point, MD for only ten bucks!

The perfect mix of heavy and dulcet is how you can describe the perplexing sound of Coast is Clear. With the bone crunching guitar work of Joe Darmofalski; the mesmerizing groove guitar of Bryon Ciotti; the thunderous booms of Kody Vaughn on bass; the chaos of Glen Darmofalski behind the drumset; and topped off with the charismatic vocals of Chris Granville; Coast is Clear will blow your mind with their original, malicious, yet poetic sound. Not recommended for children.

Zach Renovátes, Kinetic Presents: In the Name of Love For All

As a producer bringing some major events to Capital Pride this year, Zach Renovátes admits that he was keen to get Betty Who on the lineup. After having seen several of her live performances already, Renovátes knew the Australian would make a fine marquee addition to the “Kinetic Presents Candyland” event at Echostage June 10.

Fortunately, she was both available and interested.

“Something that I personally saw was that [Betty Who] is one of the most pro-LGBT singer-songwriters I’ve ever ever seen perform live,” Renovátes said, adding that the D.C. audiences at her concerts come largely from within the gay community. “So she absolutely knows that we as queer people make up a huge percentage of her fan base.”
The June 10 event is the main draw of a weekend of collaborations between Kinetic Presents and the Capital Pride Alliance in celebration of D.C. Pride 2023. Other big names who will play at various venues around the District include DJs Abel and Cindel, Dan Slater, as well as Jerac and Paulo Fragoso. It’ll be a pride-filled musical weekend indeed, with Echostage, Sax, Bunker and Bliss Nightclub hosting the pulsing sounds of revelry. And there’s also the big parade on June 10.
