Orchard Lounge

Formed in Chicago back in 2000, house disco trio Orchard Lounge will provide enough electricity to drive any techno show. OL provides stylish DJ sets that can educate and reintroduce many to the eclectic house tech genre. With a mix of live band and turntable improvisation, Orchard Lounge has dominated numerous world-famous venues like Red Rocks and the Hammerstein Ballroom. Each member circulates their own musical influence into the group through their multi-genre backgrounds, ranging from a classically trained violinist to a guitar aficionado and even a hidden clarinet player. The obvious experience of the trio not only enlightens their house beats but provides a well versed foundation, grasping the attention of any techno enthusiast looking to expand their horizons. Orchard Lounge will not only get you pumped and moving, but will provide a surprisingly cultured twist to their energized volts of techno. (Friday, 4:30-5:30, North Stage) –text: Chris Pugh
