Flamingosis @ Express Lift Bar | Après All Day , opens in a new window
Après All Day reaches new heights with vintage funk and disco music inspired: Flamingosis. Join us on March 21st, starting at 2pm for this free après show with support from local talent: Acid Cowboy.
About Flamingosis: Flamingosis makes the soundtrack to being your best self. Under the spell of Aaron Velasquez, the New Jersey-raised and Brooklyn-based artist and producer, handcrafted electronic beats meet live instrumentation spiked with funk in the center of the dancefloor (right underneath the disco ball). The ensuing overflow of energy might just inspire you to get up and move, fall in love, or even change your life. Extending a creative arc without comparison, he strikes a deep emotional chord on his 2025 full-length album, Sunlight Daydream.
