This week on Rave Culture Cast I'm excited to share my recap & review of my 8th EDC Las Vegas! Every EDC is unique and special in it's own way and this year was no different. This year I attended EDC on behalf of BeatBox Beverages and also hosted some artist interviews with Insomniac Radio 🎙️

I'll be sharing some behind-the-scenes stories on my experiences at the festival and Hotel EDC PLUS my thoughts on the new festival layout, art installations, crowding, water refill stations, and more hot topics. Enjoy 🥳

Andrew Parsons & Kelly Gray, the co-owners of The Concourse Project, Real Music Events, and Co-creators of Seismic Dance Event, a boutique house & techno music festival based in Austin, TX, are developing an incredible fan base of ravers through expertly curated lineups and experiences. They've also been able to keep their fingers on the pulse of the community as co-owners of the Concourse project, a local favorite for dance music lovers.
It’s pretty remarkable to see the growth of the scene in Austin and how these two are working hand in hand to help fuel that fire. In this episode, we're shedding a light on that journey and diving into how they're creating a space for rave culture to continue to thrive.
