Saturday night was a proud night for the DMV’s burgeoning music scene. Twelve of the area’s best and brightest acts shared the stage at the Hamilton and the result was a resounding display of the diverse talent that resides in the D.C. area.
Earlier this year, Brightest Young Things released its list of “Top 25 DMV Artists to Watch In 2013.” The article generated such positive feedback that BYT decided to go ahead and make it into a live mixtape of sorts.
Event: Broccoli City Festival @ the Fairgrounds, April 21
The Fairgrounds at Half Street SE has become an unlikely boon to the city’s social scene. Any empty lot in SE enclosed by stacks of storage containers would have made a great venue for a crack den just 10 years ago, but lately the venue has become the premier pregame destination for Nationals fans and a great pop-up entertainment venue.
Next weekend, in honor of Earth Day, the Fairgrounds will play host to the Broccoli City Festival. The event will feature a variety of attractions including yoga, food trucks, art and live music.
The music lineup features a solid list of emerging artists with more established acts like Big K.R.I.T. and JMSN headlining the bill. Both headliners have a healthy amount of buzz in their respective circles, but we are really stoked on the locals: Tittsworth, Phil Ade, Misun, Locke Kaushal, Kingpen Slim and more.
Check the flyer above for all the details. Tickets start at $29 and can be purchased here.
