Another trip to DC for work, another chance to check out some of the great music venues in the city. This year I was lucky enough to be able to catch shows on both the Sunday and Monday nights I stayed. I was happy to be making it back to DC9, remembering how much I liked this place from the Michl / Mack show back in 2017. This time I was seeing DRAMA, who I surprisingly already had in my music collection! This duo out of Chicago has some great sounds, who have "been described as soulful electronic combining influences of house music, indie, neo-soul, pop and R&B.” Check out their video below! I hope they book Cleveland in their near future…
Opening was the locally based Lightmare, "a six-piece soul-punk arrangement out of Washington, D.C making songs about love, death, and revolution, in any order and definitely overlapping.” I enjoyed their sound, and their integration of poetry into the set was reminiscent of Ani DiFranco.
