SASAMI (Sasami Ashworth) has been making music in the Los Angeles area, in almost every way you can, for the last decade. From playing French horn in orchestras and studios and playing keys, bass, and guitar in local rock bands (Dirt Dress, Cherry Glazerr), to contributing vocals/string/horn arrangements to studio albums (Vagabon, Curtis Harding, Wild Nothing, Hand Habits, etc.) and producing on tracks for other respected artists (Soko), she has gained a reputation as an all-around musical badass.

After graduating from the Eastman School of Music in 2012, SASAMI spent her time scoring and making orchestral arrangements for films, commercials and studio albums, as well as being a deeply committed music teacher in Los Angeles. She spent the previous two and a half years touring the world non-stop playing synths in the band Cherry Glazerr and is now taking a turn to focus on her own music. SASAMI's first ever self-released single "Callous" was given Pitchfork's "Best New Track," and this year she has already shared bills with the likes of Japanese Breakfast, Liz Phair, The Breeders, and Blondie.

DJ Doc Martin “The Resident Mixologist”

Spinning records for appreciative admirers for years has been just one of the many blessings in the life and music career of our “Resident Mixologist,” DJ Doc Martin. Born and raised in Connecticut and deejaying since high school, his specialty is Club Classics and Soulful House music, and many a club goer has left his live DJ events with great memories and sore feet!   

Doc has been on the air at WBLS (107.5FM) in New York since 2008. He currently can be heard mixing every Friday night at 9pm. He has also been involved in many successful Tri-State area projects, including serving as Grand Marshal in the 2018 New York City Dance Parade, and an appearance in House music legend CeCe Roger’s “When We All Pull Together” video. 

Doc spends hours studying music, looking for the one track that makes the listener say, “Oh wow, I haven’t heard that on the radio in a long time!” Doc says the ultimate thrill will always be the reaction of the crowd when he plays the right song at the right time of the evening. The good Doctor is in, check him out!
