Oh, you want CdM parties? Sure. Scroll your Lowdown listings below for details on a slew of DJ nights, EDM at Arcata Theatre Lounge, rock at The Jam and an actual Latin dance music band at Persimmons Garden Gallery. Of course, while they really have culturally nothing to do with this day, LoCO has a soft spot in its bosom for Zepparella, the all-female Led Zeppelin cover band scheduled to melt faces tonight at HumBrews. They are wow. Proof in the YouTube clip below.
