V's Bday Party W/ Akanbi (Groovy Groovy) & Wilhelmina

Inviting friends, friends of friends, loved ones, and dance community members to a celebration of life at Earthly Delights. Social hour between the hours of 7 - 8 pm. Music begins at 8 pm and ends at 1-ish am. Coming off a debut in Japan, New Jersey’s WILHELMINA promises to start the night right with his own productions and unique blend of energetic, percussion-forward global club music. Expect to move your feet to jersey club, hard drum and techno in a hybrid set that whips the dance floor into a frenzy. Akanbi, boss man of New York’s party series GROOVY GROOVY, closes the night. He has captivated dance floors with visionary sets at festivals like Sustain-Release, Boiler Room and DRIPPING, and on the international stage in hallowed spaces like Panorama Bar of Berghain and Tresor. Akanbi throws down and we expect no less for this set. Be ready to sweat to a deep blend of boogie music, whip-crack bangers, insistent percussion, afrobeats, and slow-burning experimental descents. We’re going deep to finish this one. ABOUT THE ARTISTS :: WILHELMINA: New Jersey-native producer and DJ, WILHELMINA, is shaping club music in his own special way.
