Download or podcast our monthly donut radio show where we play records we like and bring in guests from the upcoming donut party! Tune in to WESTADDRADIO 93.7fm or visit westaddradio.com!
DONUTS presents an all-inclusive space for artists/musicians/djs/designers of every kind to get together in one location to appreciate each other and provide dance party entertainment to the local community. You will not hear the same songs you hear at every other club, playing over and over! Instead your hips will be given music to shake to all night long that your ears may or may not have already heard. The records played at DONUTS focuses on obscure as well as classic music from all over the world from the 60s/70s to the present with dance-able beats and an underground and/or punk rearing. Bands booked include up-and-coming local bands as well as touring
bands; all of whom share similar influences yet may execute their sound in different unique ways. DONUTS is a celebration and a statement of a radical resurrection of the life of the party that has seemingly, sadly started to creep away from the American nightlife. Let's bring it back collectively!
