It was the gig I had been most looking forward to after my move to Washington DC. Louie Vega is one of my music heroes, and it was a great honor to open the night for him at Flash Club DC in November 2023 (my first club experience in Washington DC!) It was definitely one of my favorite gigs in 2023.
