2025 marked 25 years of DJing for me. I’ve had the privilege of spinning alongside dozens of incredible DJs at dozens of events and venues all over Pittsburgh in that time. When DJ Erica Scary joined the ranks of local dark alt DJs, I was thrilled and thoroughly impressed.
She has demonstrated the level of skill, professionalism and personality that makes for a truly outstanding DJ and promoter. But her kindness, authenticity and support makes her a truly outstanding person and friend.
I’ve enjoyed DJing with her at multiple events over the years and honored to DJ with her and The Comeback Kid to celebrate her birthday tonight at ☾ KiLLiNG MOON ☾ 8os Darkwave Birthday Dance Party @ ♽ MiXTAPE ♽ 8/29/25! Hope to see many of you there! 🖤🎂🎧💀🪩🎉💜
📣 MULTIPLE GIG ALERT! 📣 I'm thrilled to be DJing at a few wonderful upcoming "flea market" type events! First up, you can catch me THIS SATURDAY at the Night Market at The Block Northway with I Made It! Market / Neighborhood Flea from 4-8pm. It's indoors and free! 🛒🙌
Next is a NEW reoccurring event by The Neighborhood Flea happening the first Sunday of each month from June thru October at Schenley Plaza in Oakland! The first one kicks off on Sunday, June 1 and runs 10am-3pm. More details on the event page: Neighborhood Flea ~ Schenley Plaza ~ June 1. 👌🌳
Last but certainly not least, I'm super stoked to be spinning at the Allentown Night Market Spring Edition 2025 on Saturday, June 14 from 7-11pm in the most weirdo-friendly neighborhood in Pittsburgh! 🎪👻
Hope to see you at any of these fine events that support local artists and small businesses! 💜
