Over Memorial Day weekend, Detroit’s DJ Holographic plays a hometown set at the Motor City’s iconic Movement Festival.

For now, the producer born Ariel Corley is on the road and headed to St. Pete, just a year after releasing her debut LP, House In The Dark.

Connected deeply to Detroit’s techno roots, the 35-year-old brings her tastes (she grew up listening to The Jackson 5, Erykah Badu, Prince, Bowie and Nirvana) to techno and disco-centric sets that’ve made her a global star.

Bay area house scene staple Brian Busto supports on this rare opportunity to dance with someone connected to the birthplace of the American dance music movement.

Tickets to see DJ Holographic play The Nest at St. Pete Brewing Co. in St. Petersburg on Friday, Feb. 27 are still available for $24.80 and up.
