About This Event
BOUND PRIDE at BASEMENT presents Samantha Togni, cotton, Katie Rex, Sedef Adasï, Josh Steers and JOSELO in an electronic/DJ lineup. JOSELO brings a narrative-informed perspective from his work as Café Tacvba's guitarist and as a fiction writer, with sets that favor structure and articulation over spectacle and often lean toward electronic and tropical textures. Katie Rex, a BASEMENT regular, balances live DJ performance and live electronics with patient transitions, clarity and a steady sense of pressure.
