Hard French Fam Hella Slaps

What an insane 14th season we’ve had together babesz.  Thank you for 14 years of Cruisin, Dancin and Frenchin with us. YOU are all the magic that makes each Hard French so special and we couldn’t be more grateful to you <3, our legendary party fam. 

It’s all about that final curtain tho and -dream unlocked – boi, did we save something HELLA special YOU! NYC’s The Carry Nation on the sweetest patio in the world, with the most awesome fam in the world, serving up some of the best dancing in the world is real and for YOU. We are soo damn twirled to share the El Rio patio with you and this incredible duo of crème de la cremes. If you don’t know, ask your most sickening friend, this one is special.

Carry Nation parties are ballroom, 90’s house, rave, east village loft, club kid…. They are quintessential NYC club, flow vibrantly between genres and are unapologetically fierce. Comprised of Nita Aviance and Will Automagic, the DJ/ Producer duo’s style is all the magic of all the dance floors you idolized as a club baby paired with the heat and skill of some of the most seasoned creators in nightlife.  This.

Carry have just released a compilation titled Full Tilt Carry Vol 2. on the legendary rave label, Nervous Records featuring our very own Vin Sol’s project, Triple Five Soul. They’ve DJd everything from Glastonbury to Limelight to the infamous Panorama Bar, have been featured in the NY Times, have released edits for Beyoncé  and are outstanding producers in their own rights. We’re SOOOOO ready to tear this weekend. It’s gonna be HOT! You ready?

….well that was weird huh? Greetings from Vax town Hard French . Did you get yours? We’re so excited to hug you (masked and with consent of course) again!

The incredible, RESILIENT and magical staff of El Rio asked us to help warm up the patio for them and seeing as how we’ve mastered all breads, cooked every cookbook, become Zoom wizards, beat back Facism, and taken down the honey bear guy we figured all thats left is to French with you again. So we’re easing into the moment with a very special, very safe, very hard french set of sit down only happy hours on Saturday May 15th. Break out your best reunion look and prepare to bring that Hard French energy baby! Lets be weird.
