High quality house and techno may not be synonymous with Las Vegas but The Artisan Hotel, Las Vegas’ first non-gaming boutique hotel, is taking some big steps to change that. A welcome escape from the bombastic mega hotel experiences on the Strip, The Artisan Hotel, veers away from traditional (and cheesy) Las Vegas nightlife stereotypes by bringing three well-established, forward thinking underground acts to the club for Labor Day weekend. The Junkies, Worthy, and Popof will all be playing at the club from Friday, August 30th to Sunday, September 1st.
This long weekend of great music kicks off on Friday with Toronto’s The Junkies. The Toronto DJ Duo currently hold residencies at Toronto’s Guvernment Nightclub and Footwork Bar. They’ll be fresh from some recent gigs in Ibiza and will have just played NYC’s famed Cielo the night before.
On Saturday, Worthy will take over the decks. As the head of Anabatic Records and one of the founding members of Dirtybird, Worthy has had a busy touring schedule this summer season playing around the world from his hometown of San Francisco to Ibiza.
Popof will wrap up the festivities on Sunday night. The French DJ has produced on labels such as Turbo, Cocoon, Cr2, and Mistakes and is known for his remixes for artists spanning several genres including Depeche Mode, Chemical Brothers, Tiga, and Martin Solveig.
