Sleaze Ball: Recession Pop!

sleaze ball is a love letter to the era of bloghouse, electroclash, & indie sleaze of the early aughts as well as the latest resurgence of those respective genres today. combining elements of music, dance, drag, and entertainment, sleaze ball was born out of the desire for a party or event that brought hipsters, indie rockers, and weirdos together to celebrate the monoculture of indie/alternative music through a queer lens and experience.

we’re back from summer vacation and ready to party with you once again! SLEAZE BALL: RECESSION POP is a celebration of the electronic/pop genre fusion of the late 2000’s and early 2010’s. when the outside world felt chaotic and uncertain, people found escapism through the music in the clubs, over the radio, and on the blogs. from gaga to rihanna, avicii to zedd, and lmfao to kesha, “recession pop” was all about the party and living each moment as if it were your last.

join us as we escape our current 2026 hellscape to a night out at the club, in business casual, where we’re dancing and singing with our friends…
