By showcasing and uniting self-identified female, genderqueer, transgender, and gender non-binary producers, Dj’s and live performers, we recreate a new narrative for the current male-dominated circuit in club culture and music technology Elisabeth Dalton: Elisabeth, a Boston native, cut her teeth DJing in Montreal where she was inspired by the rich and diverse underground music scene. Her personal taste and DJ output are informed by an array of sounds ranging from house to techno to hip hop to disco to many others styles beyond and in between. Elisabeth is a resident DJ of Scanners, a monthly techno night at Zuzu. You can also catch her djing at other locations both near and far. https://soundcloud.com/elisabethdalton Dee Diggs Dee Diggs is a DJ, event curator & organizer based in Boston, MA. She is unapologetically black, queer, & femme. She is building and using her influence to create space for marginalized groups to express & organize themselves. Her aim is to sustain more spaces where these groups are valued and thanked by name for their contributions to humanity. (Thank the OG Black innovators for House & Techno! Thank you, Disco-era Queens & Queers alike for the theatrics & fanfare of nightlife as we know it! etc.) Her sound is on the A-side, grounded & self-referential, but on the the B-side, a dreamy and foreign pursuit. https://soundcloud.com/dee_diggs !!! PLUS SPECIAL GUEST HEADLINER DJ !!! BEARCAT (NYC, DISCWOMAN) BEARCAT is a London born, Brooklyn based artist. Internationally known for her various skill set’s as a DJ/Producer, Audio Engineer and Pro MUA, BEARCAT began touring with various artist’s in 2005 providing backing vocals and creative direction for live festivals such as Afropunk, Glastonbury, Reading and Lovebox.

Drawing from deeply personal experiences and diasporic root’s, her ear guides her into creating bass-heavy uncompromising, powerful mixes that harness a symbiotic energy between the music and the crowd to generate the perfect soundtrack to any event. ^^^ NIGHTCLUB PHOTOGRAPHY AND STELLAR VIDEO PROJECTIONS BY DADT RESIDENT NICK DAY ^^^ The Sinclair Harvard Square ALL ARE WELCOME WHO WELCOME ALL
