Dancing in the parking garage - join us for an unforgettable evening with a concert and DJ set: The Viennese band DIVES met at a music camp for women, inter and trans people in 2015. They have since perfected their brand of stirring multivocal indiepop with DYI vibes, characterised by lyrics about everyday sexism and self care, friendship and summer nights. As a DJ Tonica Hunter has founded collectives and events and DJ'd at many festivals and cultural spaces. Hunter describes their sound as a merger of their Jamaican roots, their London upbringing and their ties to Africa as a member of the Diaspora - as well as the navigation of those identities.How to get there.DOORS: 19:30 DIVES: 20:00TONICA HUNTER: 21:00
