Hotel Canal
Hotel Canal rings in spring with an artist who is no stranger to the Dolphin, Virtue Signal! Making their return for the first time since 2023, this Bayou bass scientist has been quickly redefining the New Orleans dance music scene one event at a time- and has a production catalogue to match. Joined by residents Anne Fahn and Waycool Junior, you can expect a healthy mix of all things house with a strong dose of acid likely, and everything in between. We hope you enjoy your stay…”
LOVE TEMPO w/ ADAB//BRATTY B
LOVE TEMPO “Love Tempo” comes to life by way of ADAB and Bratty B for this special night at The Dolphin Tavern! Both originally hailing from Chicago, the pair is bringing their Midwest sensibilities for House music and dance culture to their favorite (and current) home base of Philadelphia. Ordinary World resident & cofounder, Bratty B applies high energy blends of regional club music (jersey club, baltimore club, juke, and footwork) with classic house and techno to create an enraptured experience… T4T LUV NRG affiliate and NTS resident, ADAB brings a specifically known freakiness to the table. Establishing a reputation when it comes to their renegade approach to sound stemmed from a pure love of Midwest dance music. From Chicago to Detroit, London, Berlin, Amsterdam, and now Philadelphia they’ve pushed themselves and those that appreciate to seek beyond the known boundaries… Together they’ve created LOVE TEMPO. A party for you and all flavors of your passion to coalesce! See you on the dancefloor 💋
