Description
Join us in support of raising funds for the new home of Flying Squid, Athens own dedicated comedy theater, featuring the musical talent of opener Drí and headliner band KIT. Commencements begin with stand-up comic Miles Bunch.
Adriana Thomas (Drí) is a singer, percussionist, and songwriter based in Athens, Georgia. After fronting indie pop band, Partials, for over 10 years and touring internationally on drums and vocals with projects ranging in genre from indie-pop, jazz, americana, blues to afrobeat, her solo music takes heavy inspiration from those genres in addition to salsa, Brazilian rhythms and RnB. She loops her voice, percussion instruments, synth, and the occasional guitar to build melodic mazes in which she and audiences can willing lose themselves, dancing, laughing and breaking barriers. Her performances are as much an interactive experience of vulnerability and exploration as they are musical expressions.
KIT is a four-piece band blending psychedelic pop with rock and synth-driven melodies. Known for their dynamic live shows and complex, danceable songs, KIT weaves together themes of nature, fleeting moments, and the space between happiness and despair. Their performances are immersive and high-energy, seamlessly flowing from one song to the next, while their laidback, natural aesthetic reflects their honest, DIY approach to music.
