December 3, 2021This is the event you've been waiting for!
Our friends at Subcaste Sound and Light will be performing at Trails End Taproom in Monument as part of the Trails End Christmas market.
Subcaste Sound is a subversive Hi-Fi art reinforcement and sound installation experience, known across Colorado for their high quality, remarkably resonant custom constructed sound system (can you feel the BASS?).
Subcaste features returning MWTA favorite Chazzie 1 Love with smooth reggae sounds starting at 4pm. Live music at 5:30 followed by more funk house and more from DJs Wise and Takaya to get your groove on. The event will be accompanied by video art & shadowbox, plus pyrotechnics from the never-before seen Hydraconflagulators.
The Meltdown also includes curated & performance art by Spica.
DRESS FOR THE WEATHER at this outdoor dance party slash Christmas market
This IndyGive! event is also in partnership with TriLakes Cares and will feature our friends from the Woodmoor nordic center.
Free for all to attend, please come say hello!
