Deep South Dance: Post-Voodoo Blues? Check Out the Latest in Electro-Nola News

Deep South Dance Whipped Cream

November 4, 2019 | The post voodoo blues may be setting in, but there’s still plenty to get excited about in our little corner of the swamp. I’m Sierra – your newest Captain of the Beat on Deep South Dance – and Here’s your latest bi-weekly roundup…

Voodoo Nola took City Park by storm last weekend. Bassnectar brought the thrills on Saturday night, while space mom Rezz brought the chills for Sunday.

 

All the Deja Voodoo afterparties were also a hit. Hell’s Gala brought Slander and friends to the Orpheum, while Krewella took over the Metro for their annual Fright Night. PEEKABOO and Whipped Cream played late into the night at the Republic, while Zhu joined as a special guest during the Joy’s Krewe du Kanaval party.

Halloween weekend brought lots of treats to town. Local production company Bearded Lady Productions brought a special Hexxed themed party to Santos, and alien life landed at the Drifter during a Sinful Seven Soirée

Here’s what’s coming up for us over the next two weeks.
